The TVI Take
Ernst Lubitsch's 1939 Greta Garbo film about a humorless Soviet envoy sent to Paris who falls in love with a Frenchman. The structural commitment to letting the canonical 'Lubitsch touch' — sustained sophisticated-comedy register at scale — render Cold-War-prefiguring political-cultural material is among the most-canonical pre-WWII Hollywood comedies.
'Garbo laughs!' marketing tagline became cultural shorthand.
