An introduction to Brecht, the roots of contemporary theater, and Marxism. Fascinating, but not terribly well put together or even that engaging, unless any of the above fascinate you on their own.

Mildly engaging with brief moments of insight, but it's mostly a missed opportunity to dig deeper into the play's sociopolitical relevance to the world of today

Walter's doc can't decide whether it wants to be about Brecht, Streep, or Mother Courage herself.

A documentary about putting on a production of the anti-war play Mother Courage and Her Children by Bertolt Brecht. I found this fascinating - especially all the information about Bertolt Brecht and his (and Marx's) ideas about war. They don't show the entire production, but they do show the highlights and explain their significance and compare it to the original production put on by Brecht in Germany in 1949. It's all grist for the mind, but watching this makes me realize how trivial a lot of other documentaries are that I have seen lately. I thought how great it would have been to have seen a production of Mother Courage when I was in high school. Five stars.

A great doc. The creators of the NYSF production of MOTHER COURAGE in the Park provide valuable insight regarding Bertolt Brecht's work. Meryl Streep's commentary is especially extraordinary in the film. The portrait of Brecht's life is flowery and informative. I was hoping to see more depth regarding the playwright as a contradiction in his own life, and to have those dramatic drops of shrewdness enlighten the audience. A must see and must have dvd if you love Brecht and Streep!
