I find the subject of films made in Nazi Germany interesting - it appears that an actual majority of films made in that time and place were comedies like this. The Nazi authorities seem to have found escapism was popular and gave permission for a lot of films of this nature. Films with an overtly Nazi theme, such as those about the Nazis' rise to power, apparently did badly at the box office. It seems people wanted to escape Nazi reality, not be reminded of it when they went to the movies. The British film magazine Sight and Sound late in 1997 carried an article on Nazi cinema and praised this film. And this is all I really know about it. It is hard to find opportunities to watch such films, in some cases I think because of a fear that they might encourage Nazism or be offensive, but perhaps most of the time just because they are both old films and foreign. I have seen It Happened One Night, and since Gluckskinder is supposed to be a remake of that film, it would be interesting to view it to make a comparison.
