Reviews

The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui

★★★★
"Walter Meierjohann's direction (of Stephen Sharkey's translation) makes impressive use of the arresting symmetry typical of those great Nazi spectacles... a superb performance... perfectly catches the crowd-swaying rhetoric of demagoguery"
The Times

The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui

★★★★

The Independent
