Description
The authors explore implications of films for political philosophy and re-think his ideas of revolution, communism, and capitalism (films such as Ninotchka, Oyster Princess). Many authors explore Lubitsch's indirect approach to sexuality as a way to maintain the romantic and mysterious nature of sex in our time, as instead as a source of obscenity and awkwardness. Authors also explore radical political incorrectness and vileness of his characters, suggesting that one can solve the tyranny of PC and the absence of humor today with the help of Lubitsch. They also explore his feminism that could be used as a contrast to the #MeToo movement.
