YNTST #2 - To Be Or Not To Be
Tuesday, 5 July, 2016

Ian and Marlena discuss the 1942 Ernst Lubitsch classic/controversial WWII comedy (yes, comedy) To Be or Not To Be, their complicated relationship with films about the holocaust, and almost get completely derailed gushing about their love for Cabaret. (Plus a very brief foray into other great WWII films) The promised Show Notes (wherein we clearly forget some of the things we promised to make show notes about): To Be or Not To Be is currently streaming on Hulu Plus and can be bought on DVD/Blu ray as a lovely Criterion. The article Ian mentioned that talked about the close-up on Greenberg (and is generally a recommended read if you have interest in the film) is by "Space Out of Joint: Ernst Lubitsch's To Be or Not to Be" by Gerd Gemunden from New German Critique, no.89 (Spring-Summer 2003). It can be accessed via Jstor. Another good article on the film: http://www.lolajournal.com/5/to_be.html An article about Fritz Lang and his anti-Nazi films: http://moviepilot.com/posts/2396993 Subscribe to us/rate us on Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/…/you-need-to-see-th…/id1127498097… And do likewise on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/you-need-to-see-this We'd love to hear your feedback!
