Blu-ray Review: Jack Benny, Carole Lombard in Classic Comedy ‘To Be or Not to Be’
Submitted by BrianTT on August 27, 2013 - 1:59pmCHICAGO – We like to think that creative progress has led to a more open-minded era of today than decades ago but the fact is that I really don’t think a major studio with major actors would make a film today that felt as honestly dangerous as Ernst Lubitsch’s “To Be or Not To Be” did when it was released. A dangerous Jack Benny comedy? You bet.
