G.W. Pabst's 1928 silent masterpiece Pandora's Box stars the luminous and highly photogenic Louise Brooks. She plays the irresistible Lulu, a cabaret star who entices, captures, and eventually destroys all men who cross her path. Her beauty and her fetching charm draw an assortment of repressed and lonely people; Schigolch, a boozy old man who pretends he's her father, Geschwitz, a countess who has also fallen for Lulu, and Schoen, a rich tycoon who carries on an affair with Lulu even though he's to be married. His short solution is to put Lulu in his son Alwa's vaudeville show. As Alwa, too, becomes trapped in Lulu's charms, Schoen's fiance catches Lulu and Schoen in a backstage embrace. Lulu quickly takes her place as Schoen's bride, only to drive Schoen to suicide during their wedding party. Put on trial for murder, Lulu almost gets out of it by simply batting her eyes at the prosecutor. Still, she is found guilty, and Alwa, who has grown increasingly obsessed, causes a distraction to allow Lulu's escape from the courthouse. Alwa, Lulu, and Schoen become desperate fugitives, eventually ending up in London where Lulu finally meets her match: Jack the Ripper. Pandora's Box offers pure cinematic delights--Pabst's luscious photography, the tense drama of its story line, and most impressively and importantly, Louise Brooks, who gives a performance that is certainly one of the best in the history of cinema. --Shannon Gee
Video Description
Pandora's Box, the masterpiece of G.W. Pabst (The Threepenny Opera, The Joyless Street, Diary of a Lost Girl), and one of the most erotic films ever made, is the story of Lulu, an effervescent chorus girl who destroys anyone whose life she has touched, then is murdered by Jack the Ripper. This brilliant adaptation of Wedekind's plays Erdgeist and The Box of Pandora brings out the erotic power of this singular beauty, who lacking all moral sense and devoid of guile and malevolence, does evil unconsciously. Pabst found his ideal Lulu in American actress Louise Brooks. Her remarkable natural presence and sexuality gives this silent classic a timeless modernity.

The story is timeless and still holds your attention today. I was amazed as to how modern the film is its self. Probably the best know of G.W. Pabst’s works. Being a film from the silent era gives this film a collector’s value; yet five minutes into viewing and you do not realize it is silent.
LuLu (Louise Brooks) an amoral entertainer in 1928 Berlin, is having fun taking men for all they have and snubbing those that may care for her. After moving to London she is still in the habit of entertaining men at her place. She is about to open Pandora’s Box as she has no idea who she has lured up to her place.
If you are looking for an ending with a moral statement you will be disappointed as it is more of a Quid pro quo.
If it is not already included on the media you picked for this film there is an available separate documentary Produced in 1998 for Turner Classic Movies called “Looking for Lulu”, narrated by Shirley MacLaine, which is almost as interesting as this film.
