The sly melodies of composer Kurt Weill and the daring of dramatist Bertolt Brecht come together onscreen under the direction of German auteur G. W. Pabst (Pandora's Box) in this classic adaptation of the Weimar-era theatrical sensation. Set in the impoverished back alleys of Victorian London, The Threepenny Opera follows underworld antihero Mackie Messer (a.k.a. Mack the Knife) as he tries to woo Polly Peachum and elude the authorities. With its palpable evocation of corruption and dread, set to Weill's irresistible score, The Threepenny Opera remains a benchmark of early sound cinema. It is presented here in both its celebrated German and rare French versions.

本片以电影剧照、电影宣传照、导演工作照和演员照片等引来夸张搞笑的动画，道尽一部优秀电影的出炉是何其艰难，其中的一把辛酸泪只有电影人自己才知。 　　编剧要通过不断地与稍纵即逝的灵感做斗争，才能写出自己和导演都满意的剧本；可是他们满意的剧本，相关审查部门总能找出各种各样的问题，于是最终到达他们手上的剧本，可能已与原来的大相径庭；之后，导演开始与摄影师、美工、场记等人员一遍遍地沟通，敲定细节，找寻合适的演员；拍摄中，问题会一个接一个出现，有些镜头要重复拍摄许多次；拍完剪完，要再送有关部门审查，如果他们提出修改意见，有些镜头必须重拍；好不容易电影上映了，该电影的所有工作人员又要忐忑不安地等待观众的检验。

Three movie genres of the 1930s, boxing films, WWI aviation dramas, and backstage Broadway musicals, are satirized using the same cast.
