Friday Video: Bertolt Brecht

Bertolt Brecht.

The below clip from a 1980s BBC documentary about Bertolt Brecht offers interviews with Helene Weigel and Brecht collaborator and scholar Carl Weber, along with rare archival footage of Weigel’s performance in Mother Courage. It’s a bit of a Cliff’s-Notes introduction to Brecht’s work, but the footage itself is worth seeing.
