Details
Movie Description
Based on the "Three Penny Opera," Macheath, a notorious criminal, has wed the daughter of the leaders of the poor and oppressed beggars of Soho. To protect their shady business from Mack the Knife's intrusion, the leaders conspire to have Mack thrown in jail, but his sentence is shortlived.
Synopsis
A filmed remake of the classic Brecht/Weill operetta, "The Threepenny Opera". This is the musical story of a motley group of beggars, thieves, killers and informants who through their violent interactions and witty songs, provide a running criticism of the world and its maker. This version is based on Joseph Papp's 1976 stage revival.
Film Notes
"The Threepenny Opera" is an updated version of the 18th century ballad operetta, "The Beggar's Opera" -- written by John Gay.
Raul Julia reprises his Tony-Award winning role as MacHeath (Mack the Knife) from Joseph Papp's 1976 stage production.
Color by Magyar, prints by Rank.
Shown at the 1989 Chicago International Film Festival.
