A wonderfully anarchic and playfully subversive satire of military life from one of the great comedy filmmakers. A charismatic lieutenant newly assigned to a remote fort is captured by a group of mountain bandits, thus setting in motion a madcap farce that is Lubitsch at his most unrestrained.
The Wildcat (1921), one of their last German collaborations, was an anomaly in both their careers. It was a rollicking comedy, and Lubitsch's own favorite of his German films, but it was a failure in Germany, and was never released in the U.S., so it is little known.

Lubitsch’s 1921 silent mixes military satire with a romantic farce and tops it off with a heaping helping of manic silliness! Starring Pola Negri as the feral mountain-woman wildcat who gleefully leads her father’s elfin band of bandits on several drunken escapades and acts of highfalutin bedroom looting.
Year: 1921. Original title: Die Bergkatze (The Wildcat). Synopsis: The daughter of the leader of a gang of mountain bandits falls in love with the head of the military outfit in charge of arresting her father.
