DESIGN FOR LIVING (1933) dir. Ernst Lubitsch

“Master and Commander — gee, that was a hard film to make.

Seven cities contend over this, just as seven cities call themselves the birthplace of Homer. To tell you the truth, it's unknown where this story took place, and whether it took place at all. So, as you've noticed, it was a dark night. The anonymous man tried very hard to remain undetected, and at this he succeeded. It was so dark, quiet, and deserted, that one felt almost compelled to commit a crime. Береги́сь автомоби́ля (Beware of the Car) 1964 | dir. Eldar Ryazanov
