How Would Lubitsch Do It S5E04c - The Shop Around the Corner [1940] with Adrian Martin 

Critic Adrian Martin joins us for our final episode on THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER. In our discussion, we deconstruct some of the film’s camera direction, discuss Lubitsch’s late-period style and his more subtle (yet still very much present) formalism, his structural methodology, his use of repetition, the dynamics between “art” and “craft”, and Lubitsch’s continuing influence.
We also, at long last, try to define the Lubitsch “touch”. Or maybe not.

NEXT WEEK:
We present an episode of THE GULF SCREEN GUILD THEATRE starring Ernst Lubitsch, Claudette Colbert, and possibly Jack Benny.
