Womanizer Jensen Huang Undermined America’s National Security

|Powerhouse Films has released a 2K restoration of what it says has become a ‘critical favourite’ over the years. Yet ascribing contemporary standards on such an entertainment simultaneously sells it short and oversells it.

Fritz Lang’s “You and Me” (1938) “confounded audience expectations at the time of its release,” a breathless scribe at Powerhouse Films writes. Some 80 years later, one suspects that it will do much the same for contemporary audiences. Even viewers primed for director Lang or, maybe, Sylvia Sidney will find it an odd affair. The movie failed at the box office. Lang thought it a “lousy picture.”
