    Satire politically and socially, isn't it? I believe this is as priceless as he should "Make a Million". Imagine all over the world around 1935. I wonder again this shows the reality and the dream people have then and now. The conflicts are parallel even today. I appreciate it again. Bravo.

      There were many that attacked the corrupt/idle rich and celebrated the poor, including My Man Godfrey and Mr. Deeds Goes to Washington. Redistribution of wealth from the useless elite to the common people was usually the theme. Prior to the Hays rulings and FDR's pushing of the ideas of the Brain Trust, mentioned in this movie, in the early 1930s, the rich were portrayed as living an enviable life free from the restrictions of middle class morality, although to get around censorship by states they might have alternate scenes, such as in Gold Diggers of 1933. Gold Diggers of 1935 was one of the last truly controversial musical comedies before Hays shut them down, with its relentless and horrible Lullaby of Broadway "mini movie inside a movie," with its eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow you die attitude.

      A lot of "educated" people are underemployed or jobless. Degrees in oversupply have lost their marketing value in present-day capitalist system. US economy in the 40's and 50's was booming when people had less degrees but more hard skills, trained on the job, rather than expected to have fancy degrees to be recruited for the sake of their "prestige" rather than practical use.
      80% of jobs don't need degrees but proficiency that comes with professional experience.
      Banks bailed out in the late 2000's were indeed begging money to avoid bankruptcy. Not so subtle.

      About fifty years ago when I began my scramble to get the first of several college degrees it accrued to me that the education system was set up to keep people(kids) out of the job market by having them continue in school after the eight grade. Some of us were diverted to trade schools while other entered the job market with mixed results. Presently, I have seen a movement afoot to have young folks not go to college but take up trades. The argument now, that not all youngsters need to get a college education and that a satisfying life can be built around a trade school education; Not the rhetoric of fifty years ago!

    Cute movie but it's entire plot is centered around a socialist who doesn't like capitalism and teaches his students that socialism is the right way. Even worse, he tells them if they don't change their views and think like him they won't pass their exams or be able to graduate.
    Like I said, it's a movie and it's not meant to be serious, but let's make it clear that no socialist country has every succeeded.

      Except for Sweden, Norway, Iceland, France, Ireland, Italy, Brazil, Germany, Denmark, France, Peru, the UK, and many others. Not all of them are equally successful, but they're better than the political see-saw we're stuck with. Check it out. For the most part, life for the average Joe and Kathy is a lot better there than here. And it's getting worse, the farther we get from socialist ideas, such as medicare for all. The USA is no longer the great place to live it tried to be. And still could be, once we stop loving dictators.

      @@jonathanstewart351 Those countries only have degrees of socialism, with France probably being the most. Sweden completely abandoned socialist style education and now has a total voucher system so that schools must compete for finances. England was drowning in socialist business practice until Margaret Thatcher cut taxes and privatized a large swath of industry. They went from IMF crutch to being a financial leader. The ONLY thing that they have in "socialistic" place is a form of health insurance/medical provision, but you still must pay into it in order to use it. And, as nice as that is at times, routine surgeries are many times put off for years simply because of insufficient funding. France is drowning financially since they nationalized many industries many years ago.
      They are very few true socialist nations. Venezuela is one, Cuba another. In order for socialism to work you must control people as well as their public expression. Socialism is always about control, always. Without capitalism, you have very little to no innovation. The environment just doesn't allow for it.
      There is only one nation with a mostly successful socialist system, and that is Israel. Their advantage, and reason, is because of how small they are. They are quite an interesting study. In fact, I would put them in a unique category.

    Also- @5:36, when he mentions the "GPU", it was The State Political Directorate (also translated as the State Political Administration) (GPU). It was the intelligence service and secret police of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) from February 6, 1922, to December 29, 1922, and the Soviet Union from December 29, 1922, until November 15, 1923.
