Morocco (Standard Edition)

Marlene Dietrich, dressed in an immaculately tailored trousers, tuxedo and top hat combination, sings #39;When Love Dies#39; and kisses a woman in the audience. In this moment, Dietrich became an icon, a trailblazer, a performer unlike any before or since, and heralded her international stardom.Morocco was Dietrich#39;s first Hollywood picture, reuniting the formidable actor with the equally formidable director of her previous film, The Blue Angel, and continuing a working relationship that would extend to five further collaborations. She plays Amy Jolly, a nightclub singer who meets and falls in love with a legionnaire, played by Gary Cooper (Peter Ibbetson), beginning a torrid, delirious romance.2K restorationOriginal mono audioAudio commentary with film critics Samm Deighan and Kat Ellinger (2019)Introduction by Nicholas von Sternberg (2019, 11 mins): the son of Josef von Sternberg discusses Morocco as well as his father#39;s early film careerThe Art of Josef von Sternberg (2019, 10 mins): Nicholas von Sternberg reflects on his father#39;s work in painting and sculptureLux Radio Theatre: #39;The Legionnaire and the Lady#39; (1936, 59 mins): radio adaptation of Morocco, starring Marlene Dietrich and Clark GableImage gallery: promotional and publicity materialNew and improved subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
