Thoroughly different from To Be or Not To Be but just as exhilarating, it's one of the few films truly justifying Lubitsch's reputation for a 'touch.'

One of the virtues of The Shop Around the Corner is its ability to satirize the quotidian situations of the time. [Full Review in Spanish]

Lubitsch demonstrates that romantic comedies, like popcorn, can be enjoyed salty as well as sweet.
