Product Description:
Naive cellist audrey hepburn develops an interest in amorous magnate gary cooper. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 04/05/2005 Starring: Gary Cooper Maurice Chevalier Run time: 130 minutes Rating: G Director: Billy Wilder
Amazon.com:
Fairy-tale Paris doesn't get more enchanting than Billy Wilder's Love in the Afternoon, an ode to picnics on the grass and champagne at the Ritz. Audrey Hepburn (who had already made Sabrina with Wilder) is at her best as the inexperienced cellist with a fascination for millionaire American playboy Gary Cooper. Maurice Chevalier (who else?) is Hepburn's father, a private detective with ample evidence of Cooper's crowded history of l'amour. Alongside the sheen of the romance is Wilder's unerring sense of craftsmanship; watch how inanimate objects such as a liquor tray, a white carnation, or the little dog in the suite next door are developed into sublime running gags. The age difference between the two leads has often been questioned, but perhaps this is what gives the gossamer material the whiff of welcome melancholy. The final three minutes leave no doubt that Wilder hatched the best endings in Hollywood history. --Robert Horton

I really love "Love in the Afternoon"! I had a big kick out of it and I don't understand why some people dislike it.
To me, the film is a masterpiece. It succeeds in so many levels like no other romantic comedy. The story is wonderfully acted and told. Intelligent script explores human soul layer after layer- all the silly things we do when we are in love and all the illogical explanations which we make to justify our madness, it is all there. The underlying dramatic theme,that love ... Read More

Audrey Hepburn (who was an excellent actor and an even better human being) MADE HER FILM CAREER by playing the sweet young thing opposite the much older man. Seriously, people, how can you try, sentence and condemn this film because "Gary Cooper is too old for her," but talk about how much you love films like Roman Holiday, My Fair Lady, Charade, or even lesser movies like Sabrina or War and Peace?
Humphrey Bogart: 30 years older.
Gary Cooper: 27 years older.

Audrey Hepburn, always lovely, couldn't possibly have fallen for a man who looked as old as Gary Cooper. Apart from that, I thought the supporting actors were good, the script was good, the directing was good. Too bad about Gary Cooper.

The wisdom of Amazon kept recommending this to me. Why - because I bought Two For The Road several years ago?? That purchase was based on love of that film and its timeless reflection on love/marriage. Love in the Afternoon cannot be compared in any way save for the presence of the lovely Audrey Hepburn. She shines in both films but the latter doesn't come close to being saved by her inclusion.
Gary Cooper - are we kidding? Who in the name of William Shatner (an Olivier by comparison) ... Read More

Gary Cooper has always been the perfect guy to me. I was skeptical about the somewhat coolish Audrey Hepburn playing opposite the Coop-man.
My fears were unfounded. They are able to project a definite chemistry on film. It is a sweet romance--she, as a cellist has a crush on the much older playboy. Is it strictly a sweet romance? No. There is plenty of humor in this. One of my favorite scenes is the one in which the innebriated Cooper keeps pushing the service cart back and forth, as he is in ... Read More
