The Smiling Lieutenant
Dir.: Ernst Lubitsch | 93 minutes

The Smiling Lieutenant

USA 1931 | 93 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

A lieutenant of the Austrian royal guard suggestively winks at his girlfriend just as some princess passes by. Sure that he winked in her direction, she is determined to marry him. Frivolous men and restrained women, marital relations and status, identity swaps, mockery of manners and rituals - Lubitsch's trademarks are all present in this sweet operetta. The Smiling Lieutenant is a shrewd, elegant, and delightful work that 90 years on still plays on the heartstrings.
