Alles dreht sich, alles bewegt sich (1929): Besetzung, Handlung & Streaming

Released in 1929, Alles dreht sich, alles bewegt sich is a notable film directed by Hans Richter.

What it’s about. A day at the carnival — sensational tent shows where miracles can be seen for the price of admission, boisterous noise of crowds and barkers, shrill and gaudy circus music, the violence of the street ten-fold. This is the substance of Everything Turns, Richter’s first sound film. At its premier at Baden-Baden Richter got into a fight with two Nazi officials who disliked the film's ‘modernism.’ Yet in 1936 it was awarded first prize for artistic merit by the Nazis, with Richter’s name suppressed from the credits. He had long since left Germany.

How it landed. With an audience score of 5.7/10, Alles dreht sich, alles bewegt sich has drawn a solid, mixed-to-positive response.
