Diary Of A Lost Girl

The final collaboration, following PANDORA'S BOX, between G.W. Pabst and Louise Brooks, the American silent film star whose look defined the Jazz Age, DIARY OF A LOST GIRL is a similarly lurid tale of a young woman's life. Brooks stars as Thymiane, a young girl life whose life collapses when she is raped and made pregnant by her father's young assistant. After a reform school escape she ends up in a brothel, which, ironically, leads her to a salvation of sorts. Silent film with piano and jazz ensemble score.

    'Diary Of A Lost Girl' (1929)

    Excellent movie. Almost as good as Pandora;s Box.

    Not the Classic it's claimed to be.

    A reasonable film but not the classic I was led to believe so a bit disappointing. The film did cover some subject matter (rape, prostitution) that I was surprised to see screened at this point in the century.
