Erstausgabe
Softcover. Zustand: vg. First edition. Quarto (9 1/2 x 6 3/4"). 39, [1]pp. Original illustrated wrappers, with dark blue lettering to covers. Published following the tremendous success encountered by the movie "Wege zu Kraft und Schönheit" (Ways to Strength and Beauty), a 1925 German silent film directed by Wilhelm Prager, this work is an essay on how the movie industry can help promote physical culture. The action was an idealized depiction of health and beauty in conformity with nature and offered a contrast to the lifestyles available in Berlin and other large cities of Germany during the twenties. The movie became an immediate success as well as the most popular and most important German kulturfilm of this period, and created a general public interest for physical culture in the Weimar Republic. The movie is also best known as the first film to feature Leni Riefenstahl. "La Culture Physique en Film" is profusely illustrated throughout with numerous b/w photographic reproductions of scenes from "Wege zu Kraft und Schönheit." Text in French. Wrappers and interior in very good condition.
