The neglected French genius, Sasha Guitry's films, "Désiré" and "Confessions of a Cheat:"

brilliant, sophisticated, and intelligent. Quite unprecedented in film are his marriage of brilliant dialogue and understated comic inventiveness. I HIGHLY recommend these two films as good samples of his unequalled comedic film talent.
I know he was a panderer to the Nazi Vichy government during the occupation, but I am unaware of any proof that he harmed anyone. He wasn't tried after the war which seems to exonerate him; however, his career never returned after the war. Be that as it may, his art is of a very high order. To listen to one of his quite obviously ad-lib comedic diatribes is to visit a rarefied state of intelligent humor unknown to others excepting Noel Coward, Oscar Wilde, and perhaps one or two others.
