Grand Illusion [Available March 26 via streaming on MUBI.] Unexpected humor punctuates Jean Renoir's captivating, black-and-white, award-winning, well-acted, Jean Renoir's 114-minute, 1937 classic film based on Norman Angell's 1909 novel The Great Illusion in which an aristocratic, by-the-book French Army captain (Pierre Fresnay) finds a common bond and connection with a proud and respectful German Imperial Army officer (Erick von Stroheim) while he plans his escape with fellow inmates after he is imprisoned with a blue-collar lieutenant pilot (Jean Gain) and other French officers (Marcel Dalio, Julien Carette, Sylvain Itkine, Gaston Modot, et al.) during WWI.
