The Robber Symphony is a 1936 British musical film directed by Friedrich Feher. [1]
Writing for The Spectator in 1936, Graham Greene gave the film a mixed reception. Despite characterizing the picture as "certainly the most interesting film of the last twelve months", Greene found the film to deliver a "priggish[] reprimand [with] a didactic note". Praising the story as "excellent" and dwelling on the "superb sequence of four player-pianos dragged across the Alps", Greene nevertheless complained that "in so far as [Feher's] experiment is original, it is barren." [2]
The leading roles of Giannino and Giannino's mother were played by the director's son and wife.
