(1930) - B&W - 108 min
LikeTelevision™ proudly presents - The Blue Angel starring Marlene Dietrich as Lola Lola and Emil Jannings as the college professor Immanuel Rath. Directed by Josef von Sternberg, this 1930 was originally called Professor Unrat, then Der Blaue Engel (German for the Blue Angel) and later released in the USA. This was the breakout film for Marlene Dietrich - her next film was a Hollywood classic, directed again by Von Sternberg called Morocco starring Gary Cooper and Adolphe Menjou.

Marlene Dietrich as cabaret singer Lola Lola

The film tells the story of respected college professor Immanuel Rath who becomes smitten with bawdy burlesque singer Lola Lola. He gives up his career and marries Lola Lola and his life goes downhill in a slow but brutally sure fashion. His demise is often hard to watch, like a train wreck in slow motion. The final scene where he returns to the Blue Angel nightclub in his college hometown is just painful. A great movie, especially if you are a fan of the great Marlene Dietrich.

Part one
Intro, B&W - I really enjoyed this film and was riveted by the tragic tale of Professor Immanuel Rath who falls in love with bad girl Lola Lola, played perfectly by Marlene Dietrich. Some of the professors students are frequentig the seedy club called the Blue Angel to see the beautiful singer, Lola Lola.

Part two
The professor will have none of it - and goes to the nightclub to make sure they no longer admit the pupils. When the professor comes - they hide as he speaks to Lola Lola. Then one of the kids stuffs one of Lola's panties in the professor's pocket.

Part three
Well - the professor isn't a thief, so he feels compelled to return the purloined pantaloons. One thing leads to another - and before you know it, the professor is proposing to Lola Lola, who laughs in his face before saying yes.
