Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
The character of Lulu has been described as embodying both elements of female sexuality’s dualism, earth-mother and whore. Like Wozzeck, Lulu is social criticism, a tragedy in which the protagonists are portrayed as victims gradually becoming enslaved to social forces they are too weak to deal with.
