Louise Brooks: Looking for Lulu

This documentary about Louise Brooks is available on the special features of the Criterion Collection DVD release of Pandora's Box.  Not a bad documentary if you are interested in the woman.  A seemingly strong willed woman who actually comes off as being more frightened, defensive, and combative.  She tried desperately to do her own thing and be her own person, but she sounds as if she felt like she failed herself, even if she doesn't admit it freely.  Maybe because her measures of success were skewed by a lot of petty desires.

Rating: 7/10
