Plot:
Hardly ever mentioned in the category of lightning-paced comedies--the His Girl Friday and Preston Sturges kind--is this breathless cold war farce from the great Billy Wilder. Adapted from a on...( read more

"... Slightly schwanger!!"
And here comes master Wilder again! One of his most fast-paced movies with a taste of satire in almost every aspect! Very funny and engaging! -

This movie is exhausting to watch. There is an amazing amount of dialogue being delivered 90 miles a minute. QT eat your heart out.

MCT:May 21, 2008Top notch satire. Very Quirky. A very good Screwball comedy about relationships and The Cold War. Saw on PBS.

It is pretty funny to see Jimmy Cagney running through his lists in this film.
I have seen three of these 50-year-old highly-rated black and white films in the past week, and all are directed by Billy Wilder. Is he the only director of that era? -

Fast, frenetic, funny, and totally fantastic! Cagney is excellent, and the supporting cast are just as good. Must see!

Wilder's twisted sense of humor is put to the test in this unusual and daring comedy starring Cagney. Hilarious stuff.

MCT:December 19, 2007wonderful underseen comic gem from billy wilder. terrific performance from cagney with able support from the whole cast. full of rapid-fire dialogue and inside jokes; a time capsule from the cold war that must have seemed scandalous in 1961. an absolute delight!

While not as deep as other Wilder films by god this thing is a comedy tank. It will roll over you and keep you laughing from its first line. Cagney is a damn animal on the loose and I defy you to stop him.

MCT:August 5, 2007Haven't watched it properly but it's Cagney doing quickfire comedy, and contains Aram Khachaturian's Sabre Dance so is almost bound to be great.

Such a fun film to watch, and one of my favorite of Wilder's films. Cagney puts in an amazing performance that is made all the more interesting when it's learned that he didn't get along with Horst Bucholz. Cagney's banter really propels the movie, and helps the all ready strong script written by Wilder. An underrated film that should be more well known than it is.

A 1961 movie set in West Berlin, James Cagney and the rest of the cast are at breakneck speed the whole time. Kind of screwball with a lot of dialogue. A lesser-known Billy Wilder movie that is fascinating and fun to watch.

Classic and under rated Billy Wilder comedy set in West Berlin at the height of the Cold War. Cagney is wonderfully over the top - great one liners and parodies of his previous roles.... SCHLEMMER!!!

The timing of the release of this film (which coincided with events that further cooled the Cold War) killed it at the box office, and as such it's become one of Wilder's "forgotten" films. That's unfortunate, because it's a great film -- I think it's one of his best. Absolutely hilarious. Broad, farcical satire which lampoons both East and West, and the human foibles that underlay it all.
