Entertainment Reviews:
[W]holly convincing on screen...thanks to the psychological acuity of Pabst's direction, Brooks' luminous presence and a startlingly frank examination of sexual mores in Weimar Germany...
Sight and Sound
...Brooks' looks and performance are so luminous and, by today's standards, so contemporary that her failure to make it in talkies continues to confound...

Rating: 4/5 --
[A] deliciously sordid soap opera.

Rating: B --
It's the brilliant performance by the radiantly beautiful Brooks that makes this otherwise forgettable soap opera story memorable.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
With their remarkable rapport, Brooks and Pabst turned a Victorian tale into a timeless story of hypocrisy forgiven and of good triumphant over evil.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 4/4 --
The Hollywood ideal corrupted by the deleterious social effects of the Third Reich remains one of the most haunting synergies in silent film.

What rescues the movie from quaint anonymity is the nausea-inducing darkness that permeates its every frame

Product Description:
The final collaboration, following PANDORA'S BOX, between G.W. Pabst and Louise Brooks, the American silent film star whose look defined the Jazz Age, DIARY OF A LOST GIRL is a similarly lurid tale of a young woman's life. Brooks stars as Thymiane, a young girl life whose life collapses when she is raped and made pregnant by her father's young assistant. After a reform school escape she ends up in a brothel, which, ironically, leads her to a salvation of sorts. Silent film with piano and jazz ensemble score.
