Episode 666: The Apple Fell (1948)

Emily Intravia and Samm Deighan join Mike on episode 666 of The Projection Booth to look at Helmut Käutner’s 1948 film Der Apfel ist ab (The Apple Fell AKA The Original Sin). It’s the story of Adam Schmidt (Bobby Todd) who tries to commit suicide among the ruins of post-war Germany. Instead of killing himself, he commits himself to a sanatorium where he undergoes an extended musical fantasy sequence which retells the Genesis story.
