Ernst Lubitsch (1892-1947) |
|
- Akim Tamiroff, The Bucanneer, 1938. Although he adored appearing in front of the camera,himself, for once CB DeMille was not contemptuous of another's weakness, when Lubitsch proved too camera-shy to play Dominique You, based on a real-life cannoneer of Napoleon. Lubitsch had not acted on-screen since his 41th and final role in 1920.And in ’38, he was too busy directing his Garbo masterpiece, Ninotchka.
