Editing Ninotchka (section)

===Origins===
''Ninotchka'' is based on a three-sentence story idea by [[Melchior Lengyel]] that made its debut at a poolside conference in 1937, when a suitable comedy vehicle for Garbo was being sought by MGM: “Russian girl saturated with Bolshevist ideals goes to fearful, capitalistic, monopolistic Paris. She meets romance and has an uproarious good time. Capitalism not so bad, after all.”<ref name="Shaw">Shaw, Tony (2007).
