After a blistering noir and a searing portrait of alcoholism, Billy Wilder’s next film was . . . a Technicolor musical comedy starring Bing Crosby! Why did Wilder make The Emperor Waltz? @michaelmoreci.bsky.social and I are just as puzzled as you are.

I'm proud of everything @michaelmoreci.bsky.social & I do at @thefilmographers.bsky.social... but I'm REALLY proud of this episode. Legendary performance by the great Kirk Douglas! youtu.be/W-OThDxjok0?...
This odd film--a romantic comedy set in post-WWII Berlin--provoked one of the most interesting conversations yet on @thefilmographers.bsky.social. Join @michaelmoreci.bsky.social & me as we work our way through the life and career of the inimitable Billy Wilder!
@michaelmoreci.bsky.social & I enjoyed the chance to sit down with our old friend (and friend of the show) @danielkraus.com to talk about Billy Wilder's writing rules.
You know who has some pretty good thoughts about writing? Daniel Kraus!
(The Pulitzer judges agree.)
