William Thiele is remembered today as the father of the sound film operetta with seminal classics such as
Drei von der Tankstelle
(1930). While often considered among the most accomplished directors of Late Weimar cinema, as an Austrian Jew he was vilified during the onset of the Nazi regime in 1933 and fled to the United States where he continued making films until the end of his career in 1960.
Enchanted by Cinema
closely examines the European musical film pioneer’s work and his crosscultural perspective across forty years of filmography in Berlin and Hollywood to account for his popularity while discussing issues of ethnicity, exile, comedy, music, gender, and race.
