DER LIEBE AUGUSTIN (1940)

Paul Hörbiger, Michael Bohnen and Auguste Pünkösdy
$9.99


Vienna, sometime around 1680:  Augustin makes fun of Leopold I mistress and in doing so, stirs up the passions of the people against the luxury-enjoying rulers, who neglect their people.  He is arrested and sent to prison.  When the plague breaks out, he manages to get out of prison, but accidentally ends up in a mass grave for victims of the plague ... happy plot, huh?


THERE IS A NEWSREEL PREVIEW BEFORE THE FILM, JUST AS GERMAN AUDIENCES MIGHT HAVE SEEN WHEN THE MOVIE WAS FIRST SHOWN (except this newsreel may not be contemporary to when the film was released).


DVD-R IS IN GERMAN WITH NO SUBTITLES (except for the Newsreel). APPROX. 113 MINS. COMBINED TOTAL. WORN, VHS-LIKE FILM QUALITY OVERALL, BUT WATCHABLE.
