Marked by GW Pabst's innovative, atmospheric direction and a surprisingly modern storyline, Pandora's Box ultimately owes its power to Louise Brooks' monumental, iconic performance.

Pandora's Box is a richly atmospheric work, and Pabst is equally at home in Berlin high society or in London's impoverished East End, where Lulu encounters Jack the Ripper. June 16, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The film was adapted from a stage play, but possesses a strictly cinematic vocabulary that was heretofore unseen within the young medium. May 31, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Louise Brooks, especially imported for the title role, does not pan out, due to no fault of hers. She is quite unsuited to the vamp type which was called for by the play from which the picture was made. February 27, 2013 | Full Review…

The way the camera lingers on Brooks is voyeuristic; she, in turn, is oblivious to the fact we're there - the scene where she swings on the arm of muscle-head producer Rodrigo Quast is a classic example. June 16, 2020 | Full Review…

The film is laid out in a strange, semi-successful eight-act structure (just like von Trier's Nymphomaniac), and right from the start, Pabst lets us know this will not be a strident tale of a good girl who falls from grace. February 5, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

With Pandora's Box you forget that it's black and white. You forget that the internet has yet to happen... You forget that more than two hours have gone by. You forget because it's completely modern... 100 per cent gripping and involving. May 31, 2018 | Full Review…
