The Lubitsch Touch is a fascinating dive into the evolution of Ernst Lubitsch's career, expertly led by film critic Bernard Eisenschitz. It starts with the German silents, capturing the unique charm and wit that defined Lubitsch's style. The pacing feels almost conversational, giving you time to absorb his insights. You get a sense of the era's atmosphere—both in Europe and Hollywood. The discussion flows into CLUNY BROWN, which, interestingly enough, was the last film Lubitsch completed. The film feels like a cozy chat among collectors, revealing lesser-known gems and touching on themes of romance, comedy, and the art of storytelling. It’s a solid exploration that any enthusiast will appreciate, even if it lacks the flash of more mainstream documentaries.
