Louise Brooks in DIARY OF A LOST GIRL (1929)

Reteaming actress Louise Brooks and director G.W. Pabst (Pandora’s Box), DIARY OF A LOST GIRL is a wonderfully salacious adaptation of Margarethe Bohme’s scintillating novel, in which the naive daughter of a middle class pharmacist is seduced by her father’s assistant, only to be disowned and sent to a repressive home for wayward girls. She escapes, searches for her child, and ends-up in a high-class brothel, only to turn the tables on the society which had abused her. Brooks delivers a tour-de-force performance that helped cement her status as one of cinema’s most luminescent beauties.

“A deliciously sordid soap opera…[starring] one of the most iconic stars that cinema has ever seen!” -Wendy Ide, The Times
