Some Like it Hot
To Be or Not to Be (Lubitsch)
Duck Soup
The Gold Rush

Interested to see Hidden Fortress listed. It's a great film- a must for any Star Wars fans (it was a major influence, is better of course)-, and certainly has its moments of humour, but Phillip Marlowe has obviously "detected" more than i did.
