S2E07 - The Wildcat [1921] with Bram Ruiter and Will Ross

How Would Lubitsch Do It? - A podcast by Devan Scott - Tuesdays

Categories:

Will Ross and Bram Ruiter rejoin us to discuss Lubitsch’s 1921 Bavarian expressionist comedy epic THE WILDCAT. We wrestle with this exhilarating-yet-difficult work as we consider unmotivated aspect ratio changes, body double swaps, questionable rug-pull endings, Lubitsch’s artistic toolkit, and the film’s ridiculous production design.   Griffin Sheel was our dialogue editor for this episode.   NEXT WEEK: Legendary film scholar and egyptologist Kristin Thompson joins us to discuss THE LOVES OF THE PHARAOH.
