Charade (1963)
7/10
Grant and Hepburn in 1960s Paris
12 January 2021
Seeing Cary Grand and Audrey Hepburn in 1960s Paris in the lush colour film of the time makes this film worth watching. The setting reminded me a lot of The Pink Panther, also made in 1963.

This, and the chemistry between the leading lady and man make up for a plot which I found contrived, and not particularly credible. The other characters are also not well developed and don't combine very well in the film

Imagine a more light-hearted and Paris-based version of to Catch a Thief, with the mysterious and cool Cary Grant once again beguiling a beautiful and wealthy young woman.
