Über diesen Titel

In this episode, Nate and Chris unpack the absurd charm of Oscar Wilde’s timeless comedy 'The Importance of Being Earnest.' They dive into Wilde’s flamboyant life, the satirical brilliance of the play, and its lasting legacy as both literature and cinematic adaptation. From rapid-fire one-liners to cucumber sandwiches and christening chaos, they explore why the text is still laugh-out-loud funny today.

Plus, a look at the two major film versions — 1952’s sharply faithful rendition and 2002’s star-studded yet slapstick take — reveals the challenges and triumphs of bringing Wilde’s comedy of manners to the screen.
