Herzog Blaubarts Burg Duke Bluebeards Castle 1963 is a film of the opera Bluebeards Castle by the Hungarian composer Bla Bartk, written in 1911 to a symbolist libretto by the poet and later film theorist Bla Balzs. The film was made for West German television, Sddeutscher Rundfunk, and was produced by Norman Foster, who also performs the lead role. The designer was Hein Heckroth who brought in his old friend Michael Powell, for whom he had designed a number of films, to direct it. The film, which was shot at Drer Film Ateliers in Salzburg, Austria, was out of circulation for decades because of legal problems.
