No Orchids For Lulu
''Lulu'' (also released in the UK as ''No Orchids for Lulu'') is a 1962 Austrian crime drama film written and directed by Rolf Thiele. The film is an adaptation of Frank Wedekind's Lulu plays—'' Earth Spirit'' (''Erdgeist'', 1895) and '' Pandora's Box'' (''Die Büchse der Pandora'', 1904)—and stars Nadja Tiller (as Lulu), O. E. Hasse, and Hildegard Knef. Sadoul's ''Dictionary of Films'' describes Thiele's work as " heavy-handed, almost absurd version" of Wedekind's plays. But Robert von Dassanowsky credits ''Lulu'' as one of the "few notable ustriandramas during the early 1960s". Plot The story of a sexually enticing young dancer who rises up in society through her relationships with wealthy men, but later falls into poverty and prostitution, culminating in an encounter with Jack 'the Ripper'.
