Ninotchka

Letterboxd

Give her pointed ears and she could be mistaken for a Romulan! I wonder if this influenced the design of them in Star Trek? I know that this was a fairly popular film in its time and it isn't inconceivable that Roddenberry sampled from the film?

Cute movie, main critic is that the transition in her disposition occurs so abruptly that it almost feels like there is a missing scene or something.

I liked the three Russian bunglers, good sense of timing.

Also a little bit of a a love letter to Paris, though more as an excuse for our characters than as an actual study of the city.
