I saw a semi-restored print of this movie in a double bill with Cabaret at a theatre in Toronto sometime in the 1980s. My recollection is both intense and fragmentary, possibly because I was on the tail end of a rather powerful acid trip. Because of these factors, and because of having enjoyed the music before and after seeing the film, read the John Gay play, and being a Fritz Lang film interested in expanding my knowledge of Weimar Republic films, I already pre-ordered this on DVD.
Now I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks for noting this review.
so go and make a plan...
