Not many comedies so effectively demonstrate the differences between free and authoritarian countries in the attitudes of people as Ninotchka.
When people are alowed to be free, they thrive and they have joy in their lives. When people are forced to operate under a strict, machine-like system, their lives become drab, one-dimensional and joyless.
Ninotchka is a wonderful film that reminds us of the joy freedom brings and the sadness tyranny imposes. Although the film is never overly-heavy, it manages to make this message clear through showing the happiness and joy of freedom moreso than the sadness of tyranny.
Ninotchka is timeless and timely as we need to understand exactly what we will be giving up if we continue to let tyrannical forces overtake our country. We must bring back our joy and laughter! We must bring back our freedom!
