4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Oct 18, 2018
Ernst Lubitsch made a name for himself and his “touch” in silents as well as leaving an indelible mark on the 1940s with the likes of Shop Around The Corner (1940), To Be or Not to Be (1942), Heaven Can Wait (1943), and Cluny Brown (1946). But for me, no film better personifies his wit read more

If you’re as obsessed with Billy Wilder as I am, you’ll know that he had a sign on his wall that read ‘How would Lubitsch do it?’. If you watch Trouble in Paradise (1 read more

CineMaven's Essays from the Couch Posted by Theresa Brown on Jul 6, 2016
For my “HOT & BOTHERED” blogathon contribution, Ernst Lubitsch is the way to go. Why, this cheeky devil was able to slip all sorts of sexy mischief into Pre-Code films like “Design for Living” ( 1933 ) “The Smiling Lieutenant” ( 1931 ) or “The Merry Widow” ( 1934 ). He does so again. read more

"Trouble in Paradise," or The Snatch Game
The Man on the Flying Trapeze Posted by David on Mar 25, 2013
"Trouble in Paradise" bugs me, man.
Writing about it bugs me, that is. It's such a flipping perfect little movie that I can't make affectionate fun of it the way I do with awkward early talkies, or Joan Crawford's bug eyes, or Marie Dressler's mugging. It forces me to resort to phrases that aren't read more

If you want to steal from wealthy people, you have to get close to wealthy people. And what’s the best way to get close to wealthy people? Pretend to be a fellow wealthy person! That’s just what Gaston Monescu (Herbert Marshall) does when he goes to Venice. While pretending to be read more

Trouble in Paradise (1932) When Trouble in Paradise sought to be re-issued three years after its 1932 release, the Hayes Office said: No way. The film that had been alright for release upon completion, if not without some minor, ignored objections, was far too scandalous for 1935 when the Productio read more

Trouble in Paradise (1932, Ernst Lubitsch)
The Stop Button Posted by on Nov 11, 2008
Trouble in Paradise features some great filmmaking. Here, Lubitsch runs wild with the passage of time–there’s a great sequence with various clocks marking the minutes, but there’s a lot of carefully orchestrated fades as well. The film opens with an excellent mixed shot–agai read more
