W drodze do "opery filmowej". Muzyczne eksperymenty Kurta Weilla w "You and me" Fritza Langa
On the way to "movie opera". Kurt Weil's musical experiments in Fritz Lang's "You and Me"

Summary/Abstract: Fritz Lang’s film You and Me was billed as a “musical revolution”. But it never became one. Anno Mungen describes Kurt Weill’s struggles to reshape the film as a genre. Both in his theoretical reflections and his (not successful) practical attempts as a film composer, Weill was preoccupied with the idea of music as a crucial element of the film/theater dramaturgy. This idea – as Mungen tried to show, analyzing three examples taken from Lang’s film – could direct the artist straight towards the category of film-opera.
