Which character did Alice Roberts play in the 1929 film Pandora's Box?

Alice Roberts played Countess Geschwitz in the 1929 film Pandora's Box.

Countess Anna Geschwitz is a major supporting character in the film and is associated with Lulu's circle. Her devotion to Lulu gives the story an important emotional and tragic dimension, particularly as the plot moves toward its violent conclusion.

Roberts was a German actress who appeared in films during the silent era and the early sound period. In Pandora's Box, she performs opposite Louise Brooks, who plays Lulu. The cast also includes Fritz Kortner as Ludwig Schön and Franz Lederer as Alwa Schön.

The character is drawn from Frank Wedekind's Lulu plays, although Pabst's film reshapes the dramatic material for cinema. Countess Geschwitz is therefore not a figure from the ancient Greek Pandora myth; she belongs to the modern literary and cinematic Lulu story.
