Mad for the Movies: Germany Before Nazi Takeover - The Blue Angel

Primary tabs

Age Group:

Teens, Adults

Program Description

Event Details

During the 1920s, Germany was one of the most important and innovative filmmaking countries in the world.  In the few years before Hitler and Ministry of Propaganda head Joseph Goebbels destroyed German film culture in 1933, many of the country's creatives produced their most daring work.  These progressive films, all made between 1930 and 1933, flew in the face of Nazi ideology.

On this night, we will be watching Josef von Sternberg's 1930 film "The Blue Angel" starring Emil Jannings, Marlene Dietrich, and Hans Albers.

An elderly professor's ordered life spins dangerously out of control when he falls for a nightclub singer.
