He heads to the Blue Angel himself to catch the boys in the act, shame them into not going again, but also to ask the headlining performer, anglophone Lola Lola, to cease and desist performing her show. Over several visits, Rath is able to catch the boys, but he himself starts to fall for Lola, and she seemingly with him. His infatuation with her threatens his teaching career. Their relationship ends up not being what either envisioned, the question being how they will both deal with their disintegrating relationship and the reasons behind that disintegration..
Plot: Prim professor Immanuel Rath finds some of his students ogling racy photos of cabaret performer Lola Lola and visits a local club, The Blue Angel, in an attempt to catch them there. Seeing Lola perform, the teacher is filled with lust, eventually resigning his position at the school to marry the young woman. However, his marriage to a coquette — whose job is to entice men — proves to be more difficult than Rath imagined.

The downfall of an enamoured man
Despite Marlene Dietrich actually appearing in several silent films in her native Germany, it was ‘The Blue Angel’ that made her a star and rose her to international fame. It was also the film that started the famous and iconic 7-film collaboration of Dietrich and director Josef Von Sternberg.

‘The Blue Angel’ may not be the best film of theirs, but is still very good and a knockout first collaboration for them. Of the German and English language versions, there is no doubt in my mind that the German version is the superior one being better paced and more natural. ‘The Blue Angel’s’ only real drawback is to do with pacing, taking a little too long to get going and then later on parts feel rushed, abruptly introduced and not quite developed enough.

Most memorable about ‘The Blue Angel’ is Dietrich on cruel and seductive form while singing her songs with sincerity, standing out especially being her iconic rendition of “Falling in Love Again” with her in a top hat and black stockings perched on the bar stool. Her character may not be likable but it’s a complex one and Dietrich succeeds in making her real.

It is easy to overlook Emil Jannings, in his first talking picture, however, the story of ‘The Blue Angel’ really being his, detailing of an enamoured man led to his downfall. It is a performance however underserving of overlooking, for it is a great performance full of wonderful moments (like his facial expression in the mirror and at the end), succeeding in making a real character in a way that’s eccentric and poignant.

Kurt Gerrer, who met a tragic end just over a decade later, is also good.

Sternberg directs as sumptuously as to be expected and with adroit atmosphere. ‘The Blue Angel’ looks good, aside from occasional choppy editing, especially in the clever and luminous use of light and shadow lighting and cinematography that’s atmospheric and classy. The music fits beautifully and enhances the mood, “Falling in Love Again” being a signature song of Dietrich’s for very good reason.

Further good things are a script that has a good balance of the comedic and the tragic, done amusingly and movingly, and a story that’s disturbing and emotional, especially the heart-wrenching ending.

Overall, very good film and more than just historical interest. 8/10 Bethany Cox
