With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for spy-story fans and anyone who likes comedy with a point. Nobody is quite who they seem. Fans of The Kentucky Fried Movie or Don't Look Up should feel right at home. The jokes have targets, and it hits most of them.
- The mood
- Provocative satire that goes after everyone.
- The pace
- Light on its feet, at 34 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1934: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
An early short film by Douglas Sirk (Detlef Sierck) which takes a satirical look at dubious business practices during the Weimar Republic. It was banned under the title "Zwei Genies" but released as "Zwei Windhunde" after revisions were made.
