Meet The Most Famous Lulu: Louise Brooks
Some of what inspired me in my own current version of Lulu. While I have gone to some trouble to make my Lulu very un-Brooks-like, I have to confess that if it were not for her performance in Pandora's Box, I might never have gotten interested in adapting the plays to begin with.
So to show you what I'm on about, here's a massive playlist of Louise Brooks. Including: "Lulu In Berlin," an interview with the elderly Brooks; the TMC "Looking for Lulu" documentary; and all of G.W. Pabst's PANDORA'S BOX and DIARY OF A LOST GIRL. Also various odds and ends, including a scene of her in a talkie.
