I was trying to think of an example of a title that starts with an article in a case other than the nominative. It's the first thing that came to mind. It's not a form you would not see in everyday usage. It's a stylized poetic inversion. Yes, very strange.
To keep it to films, here's another one: Des Teufels General by Helmut Käutner.

Me too, though I also kevyip extras, so a disc isn’t filed away on the shelves until I’ve seen all of those (or verified that they’re worthless). My kevyip is stored in neat little boxes on a double tiered Edwardian (?) tea trolley.
