      Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press Watching this motion picture version of Three Penny Opera I had the nagging feeling that this should have been and could have been a far better film, that perhaps there was something good that is gone now due to bad editing and annoying dubbing.

      Audience Member a fun movie a blast from the past with sammy davis jr. as narrator. The movie allows us to twist our mind around who the bad guy really is and questions the "system" and power structure of government. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review todd a It's dated but the Three Penny Opera is still an interesting premise from a thought provoking, talented philosopher/filmmaker.
