A late, late side note:

In 1957, "Ninotchka" was re-made as the semi-musical "Silk Stockings," featuring Fred Astaire and Cyd Charisse. It was derived from a stage production based on the older film.

Broadway musical/dance films don't normally light my fires but Fred Astaire's reputation is fully justified in this, his last film performance before his retirement.

Russian is spoken, the Soviet Union is parodied more and better than in "Ninotchka" and Peter Lorre plays one of the three corrupted commissars.

As in the original, Ninotchka mentions, "social justice," a term seldom used outside of communist circles before it became USSA policy under Democrat hegemony in the 21st century.

"Ninotchka" and "Silk Stockings" are insults to the Soviet Union that debase women workers with vaginas and visually desecrate the memory of V.I. Lenin. It is no less than an orgy of Western decadence and materialism set to music—including so-called Roll and Rock.
