One, Two, Three (1961)

Movies the giraffe watched: April 2013 (18 movies items)

"First viewing - Apr. 17th My growing love for Billy Wilder & some praises from fellow Listalites raised my expectations too high here I'm afraid. One, Two, Three is certainly entertaining throughout, thanks largely to James Cagney being a cyclone that the rest of the characters get sucked into & thrown back away from. And sure, the characters are memorable here, plus the story moves along so swiftly there's hardly time to anticipate where it's headed. The film looks great for the most part too."

"8.2. - rewatch, still five stars It can't be a coincidence that my two favourite comedies are both about high tensions between Western Bloc and Eastern Bloc during the early 1960s. Number one would be Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove, which is a very, very dark and somewhat slow-moving satire, while number two is Billy Wilder's - another directing maestro with great versatility - rapidly paced laugh-marathon One, Two, Three, which is propably the only film I've ever seen that has actually made me roll"

" Featured List July Movie Journal - Xanadon't Hay, what can I say... sometimes I'm a coward when picking films and have to have someone I know watch the film first. A truly funny film that never slows down. "

" Netflix Instant Rapid-fire, gut-buster of a screenplay and a truly fun movie set in Cold-War Berlin. It's Coca-Cola vs. the Communists and it's never tasted so refreshing. Give this under-celebrated Billy Wilder film a look."
