Subject: RE: Lyr Req: With Her Head Tucked Underneath Her Arm
This is one of those moral questions which have always exercised me. At what stage does it become possible to make a Carry-On film about the Reign of Terror, for instance?; with the exceptionally giggle-inducing title of Don't Lose Your Head — Oh teeheehee!!!. What are we to think of everyone's favourite film comedy, Some Like It Hot, beginning with the St Valentine's Day Massacre? When are we going to have the hilarious all-singing all-dancing Auschwitz-Birkenau musical? We had that loathsome Oscar-winning comedy Life Is Beautiful which came pretty close; & arguably The Producers is well on the way to it — or is it in fact a comment on the point that I, and Rafflebear above, are making?..)
