to present the long-awaited DVD release of Kuhle Wampe, or Who Owns the
World?, directed by Slatan Dudow and co-written
by Bertolt Brecht and Ernst
Ottwald. This release
represents the first restoration ever
undertaken of the Weimar Republic classic. Long-time fans of Kuhle Wampe who
have seen the restored version are astonished at the amount of detail
now visible in the film. •
Director Slatan Dudow’s first documentary How the Worker Lives
(1930) We
even discovered a short Prologue, featuring the film and theater critic
Herbert Jhering, which was added by Dudow when the film was first
re-released post-war in East Germany in 1958. We are grateful to all
the many people whose support and technical expertise made the
restoration and DVD-release of Kuhle
Wampe possible . . . and we’d also like to thank
our patient customers! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upcoming DVD Releases - May 2008
