Dictator sits at the heart of each

Witty and playful in the same breath
The difference: Leans romance where Duck Soup does not

Comedy built on wit, twice over
The difference: Not nearly as bleak as Duck Soup

Both are Leo McCarey films, and they rhyme
The difference: Plays it as romance more than Duck Soup does

Playful war, and it commits to that

Comedy with a pulse of wit, in both cases
