Charade

Director Stanley Donen delivered another masterpiece with this elegant romantic thriller. After her husband is murdered, a beautiful woman realizes how little she knew him which puts her in danger when several men pursue her to retrieve the fortune he had stolen. Beautifully written and directed with plenty of charm and sophistication due to the effortless performances of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn at their best. The solid supporting cast includes Walter Matthau, James Coburn and George Kennedy. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
