Musical Comedies & Fantasies DVDs

Here is what one might call the lighter side of Third Reich cinema, not necessarily because all these films are light hearted (for some of the musicals and fantasies are quite serious), but because here imagination, whimsy, and music hold sway. Whether showing a machine that makes gold from lead, a production number modeled after Busby Berkeley, or a private detective disguising himself as Sherlock Holmes, these films strive to escape the rules and realities of everyday life.
