Whatever made him THE GREATEST... Rules of the Game made no impression on me and Grand Illusion, well, I should rewatch it. But he reminds me of Cukor - DULL

Now that Criterion has released practically every one of his major 1930s films, I recommend re-starting your reeducation with La Chienne, The Crime of Monsieur Lange, La Bete Humaine, etc.

I do sympathize. When I screened TROTG for students last week I carefully avoided mentioning it often ranked #2 in many polls.

Hoping Criterion gets around to TCoML someday soon.

I prefer TCoML to TRotG. But it has been a long time since I've seen TRotG.

Good show, Wizard of Oz. Ninotchka would have been my second choice. Use to play the Garbo-laughs scene for my students every year.

my best friend from college is writing another book about Garbo, am looking forward to it

The right movie won, and I feel even better now having thrown my vote toward Only Angels Have Wings.
