This month's micro edition zooms in on a snappy, passionate moment from Ernst Lubitsch's effervescent screwball,Trouble in Paradise.
We get into: sex in pre-code cinema, eye-widening lines, wikipedia marriage math, the Lubitsch Touch, what does classy even mean?, how a perfect escapist film for 1932 works just as well in 2025, and more.
