The trapeze scenes are set in the Berlin Wintergarten theatre and includes footage of various vaudeville acts of the period (including the famous Tiller Girls). The camera swings from long shot to close-up, like the acrobats.


*ABOUT THIS NEW SOUNDTRACK:
Extracts of the lively, jazzy and Weymar-tinted music by Hanns Eisler are mainly heard throughout. His contemporary Kurt Weill's concerto for violin and wind instruments is also featured, plus passages from Bartok's string quartets Nos. 4,5,6 for the most dramatic scenes.

-----------
This is the original, 102 min. film. All other available releases are truncated versions. Alas, this only version found, from a Polish TV relay, is of poor quality, although it is worth seeing for its various excellences until, hopefully, some company decides to rescue and release this wonderful movie with a decent quality.
