Film Screening: Die Dreigroschenoper (The Three Penny Opera)

A free adaptation of Bertolt Brecht's famous play, "The Threepenny Opera" (directed by G.W. Pabst, 1931)  is one of the first German sound films, and an entertaining one at that - an irreverent musical with the catchy songs of Kurt Weill and a star-studded cast. This screening is in partnership with the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany, as part of the Germany on Campus event series.
