Robert E. Sherwood LIFE [Lubitsch's] latest picture, So This Is Paris, is dead-level stuff -- a faint carbon copy of all the pictures that have been made by Lubitsch and his numerous imitators. Oct 4, 2021 Full Review Fernando F. Croce CinePassion The perfect setting for Ernst Lubitsch's comedy of pretense Apr 2, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member It’s a wacky premise I’ll give it that. I do enjoy how everyone in the film is a bad person. Like seriously, none of them have redeeming qualities. I think that’s a fun idea to base a film around. I just read a review of this film from 1926… I did not know people took cinema that seriously even back then. So many people think they were born in the wrong generation, but no man. When I can read a 99 year old review of a 99 year old film, then hell yeah I’m in THE generation to be alive. That review didn’t go easy on ol’ Ernst neither. Go read it. It’s available on internet archive, and you can go straight there from here. I enjoyed the movie more than that guy did though. So 3/5 stars for this jolly good show. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Read all reviews
