Oh... Rosalinda!!
Like the gloriously camp, all-singing, all-dancing cousin of The Third Man, the Archers’ take on Strauss’s operetta of infidelity is as frothy as the champagne it celebrates.
Director: Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger
Overview
Like the gloriously camp, all-singing, all-dancing cousin of The Third Man, the Archers’ take on Strauss’s operetta of infidelity is as frothy as the champagne it celebrates. With Anton Walbrook as a kind of masked Harry Lime, the team fuses kitsch with their typically inventive subversion.
