    Imagining a Louise Brooks feature as Lois Lane in Action Comics

    March 15, 2023 / No Comments

    In 1938, Action Comics premiered, introducing readers to the iconic character of Superman. But have you ever wondered what it would have been like if Louise Brooks played Lois Lane in the 1920s? And what if the film had been directed by G.W. Pabst, who was known for his innovative style? It’s a fascinating thought experiment to consider how the portrayal of the character might have differed from the traditional image of Lois Lane.

It was against this backdrop that G.W. Pabst made his landmark films Pandora’s Box (1929) and Diary of a Lost Girl (1929), both of which starred the American actress Louise Brooks.
