After three bumbling Soviet agents fail in their mission to retrieve a straying Soviet composer from Paris, the beautiful, ultra-serious Ninotchka is sent to complete their mission and to retrieve them. She starts out condemning the decadent West, but gradually falls under its spell—with the help of an American movie producer. A remake of Ninotchka (1939).

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A fizzy Cold War romance that delights in the collision between Soviet austerity and Western glamour, scored with Cole Porter's wit. Watch it for the pleasure of seeing a stern ideologue undone by Paris, jazz, and charm.
