Funny Nazis! Garbo Laughs!

Since this is a Wednesday night, we'll forego the usual "meet and greet" time, and just meet in front of the theater, at 7:10PM. The Stanford Theatre does not accept credit cards, so come prepared with $7 cash for your ticket. And now, on with the show!! Two of Hollywood's funniest comedies -- if you're not laughing, dial 911, because you're probably dead! To Be or Not To Be (1943) Starts: 7:30PM, Ends: 9:10PM Starring: Jack Benny, Carole Lombard Quote: "What he did to Shakespeare, we are doing now to Poland!" Plot: A troupe of hammy, Polish actors hoodwinks the occupying Nazis, in wartime Warsaw. If you thought funny Nazis started with Hogan's Heroes -- think again! Director Ernst Lubitsch's masterpiece of sophisticated comedy! And then, stay with us for... Ninotchka (1939) Starts: 9:20PM, Ends: 11:10PM Starring: Greta Garbo, Melvyn Douglas Quote: "There are going to be fewer but better Russians!" Plot: Even hardened Commissar Ninotchka (Garbo) can't resist the charms of Paris -- or Count Leon (Douglas). Garbo's most popular movie, and another masterpiece of sophisticated comedy from Lubitsch, the master.
