It struck me as an odd combination but ... what the heck? Directed by Ernst Lubitsch, a director I've always liked, I decided to give the movie To Be Or Not To Be a try.
It was worth it. Despite sagging a bit in the middle, the movie works. Although it just sounds strange to me - Lombard, Benny, Poland, Nazis, romantic comedy ... huh?
Made in 1942, it's Lubitsch's satire of Nazism and he gives it quite a going over. Here's my review of it.
