Charade

I checked the name of the director at the end to see if it wasnt some remnant of Hitchcock...I couldnt guess it till the end...The suspence is superb...but the strong point for the movie is its presentation....totally ingenuous....

This movie figures an aged Cary and aging Audrey( she still charms :)) yet it mesmerizes..the romantic Paris and the camera movements....the angles are mastercrafts...

and yes the script....there are scores of quotable lines in this movie..it begins with something like this

Cary met her
Audrey :I already know an awful lot of people and until one of them dies I couldn't possibly meet anyone else.
Cary: Well, if anyone goes on the critical list, let me know!!!!!!!

Dont waste time reading this silly blog..go and watch this movie..

Overall 8/10
Direction 8.5/10

PS: There is a music in this film which seems to have inspired the background score in the Hindi movie 'Gumnam'
