Drei Sensationen und zwei Katastrophen

In the Weimar Republic, Joseph Roth was one of the most respected feature writers in the German-speaking world. As well as writing reports, travel features, book reviews and theatre critiques, he also became an established film critic. This volume contains almost a hundred texts, some of them published here for the first time in book form, reflecting an abundance of very different views on the phenomenon of the cinema. Roth writes about premiere screenings, examines "cinematic drama", visits film locations and reports on the film industry and the newly developing cult of stardom. The whole world of Weimar Republic film and cinema is brought to life again in his texts --Publisher's website.
