presented by San Diego Symphony Orchestra

One of the most fascinating and controversial films of the Silent Era, G.W. Pabst’s Pandora’s Box debuted in 1929, the same year The Fox opened its doors. Starring the unforgettable Louise Brooks as a seductive and feminine force of nature, this brazenly melodramatic movie was a startling breakthrough for the portrayal of women on the Silver Screen. This film is accompanied by a live soundtrack performance on the Fox Theater Organ by Russ Peck.
