Ernst Lubitsch in BerlinThis comprehensive documentary covering Lubitsch's formative years in Berlin features clips from his early acting career and his work in escapist social comedy (Ein fidele Gefängnis), risqué sexual farce (I Don't Want to be a Man), fantasy (Die Puppe), and historical epics (Madame Dubarry, Anna Boleyn).
It includes informative interviews with Lubitsch's only daughter, directors such as Tom Tykwer and Wolfgang Becker, and key critics, archivists and historians (Jan-Christopher Horak, Enno Patalas).
