Explores German-American filmmaker Ernst Lubitsch's engagement with and expressions of historicity throughout his career.

---

ReFocus: The Historical Films of Ernst Lubitsch responds to and reframes the films of German emigre director Ernst Lubitsch as film-philosophical exemplars of both early world cinema and historical cinema, from his silent era costume dramas to his post-war Hollywood romances. This edited collection examines recent Lubitsch scholarship within the context of transcultural and transhistorical film theory to provide a critical retrospective of Lubitsch's costume films, historical epics, and marriage comedies across his three illustrious decades of international success.
