Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
As slick and sophisticated as its two charming stars, with a delightful Hepburn as the nervous Reggie, who meets the debonair Grant about the same time that her husband is murdered. It seems her late spouse swindled some cronies out of a quarter of a million dollars in gold. Now they think she knows where the loot is stashed. The ensuing game of "charade" and hidden identity is played out with wit and menace amid the marvelous European settings.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "You fell for her like an egg from a tall chicken"
Beginning credits play a Henry Mancini's score and we are swept back to the sixties.

The opening scene is of a metro train rolling down the track in Europe. A body is tossed off. Then a flash to a ski resort where a hand with a Luger-Parabelum is being lowered and aimed directly between Reggie's (Audrey Hepburn) eyes.

Turns out that the body from the train was that of Reggie's husband, Charles Lambert. At the funeral a strange selection of sinister characters one by one ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Often overlooked !
Charade is an often overlooked gem of a movie. After all, Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn - Guaranteed to keep your attention.

Deaths galore and the fabulous scenes of Paris tie it all together. Keeping up with any clues is a challenge. Everyone changes sides at least once and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A tip on which DVD release to get if you aren't rich
There are a lot of different releases of this movie on DVD, some of poor quality. If you can afford it, the Criterion Collection release (make sure it's the anamorphic one, not the earlier letterboxed version) is the best, in that it has a fine widescreen transfer and a commentary by the director.

But if you're a normal human, the one to get happens to be almost the cheapest one to get used (as I write this), and isn't too expensive new either. It's the version on side B of The Truth ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What a Charade
Cary Grant. Audrey Hepburn. A hidden megafortune. Three nasty pursuers. A slick, chic thriller with a Hitchcockian edge.

With that kind of formula, it's not surprising that "Charade" deserves every shred of praise it receives -- and over the years, this classic has received a lot. Director Stanlet Donen had his finest moment when he created this funny, witty, tightly-plotted little thriller, where you're left with questions right up to the final scene.

While on vacation at ... Read More
