tovarich

March 16 movie: Tovarich. Claudette Colbert and Charles Boyer play exiled Russian royalty living in poverty in Paris. Sounds depressing but it's actually a screwball comedy. Go figure! According to the movie "tovarich" means "comrade," and therefore the title refers to the villain, a Soviet party leader played by Basil Rathbone. This doesn't rocket to the top of my list of favorite Colbert movies, but only because she made so many brilliant ones and this is merely very good. I'd definitely watch it again.
