Review
Our Score
by
Tony Sloman
This absolutely wonderful comedy thriller from Stanley Donen (co-director, with Gene Kelly, of
On the Town
and
Singin' in the Rain
) nearly out-Hitchcocks Hitchcock. With a twist so clever you'll never guess, and a dream pairing of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn on ravishing Parisian locations, what more could you possibly want in the way of movie entertainment? There's a clever plot (by Peter Stone) that never lets up, a marvellous romantic score (by Henry Mancini), star-making turns from Walter Matthau and James Coburn, and some magnificent set pieces: Grant taking a shower fully-clothed; Hepburn and Grant falling in love on a Paris river boat; and a fight with a one-handed villain in a roof-top cliffhanger. This terrific movie's got the lot.
Summary
A distraught widow learns her husband was murdered for his part in a $250,000 robbery. The haul has gone missing, and his former accomplices are soon on her tail in the hunt for the missing proceeds. Not knowing where to turn, she takes up the offer of help from a dashing stranger, but is uncertain whether she can trust him. Romantic thriller, with Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant, Walter Matthau and James Coburn.
