Here are 12 reasons this is one of my all-time favorite films.
1. Audrey Hepburn 2. Cary Grant 3. Whoever thought of casting them together in this particular film. 4. Stanley Donen's effortless homage to Hitchcock. 5. Peter Stone's elegant, menacing and romantic screenplay. 6. Henry Mancini's hummable score. 7. Hubert de Givenchy's stunning wardrobe for the enchantingly elegant Audrey. 8. Walter Matthau (who knew he could play a mean guy!) 9. James Coburn 10. George Kennedy 11. The funeral scene. 12. Memorable lines: Audrey: How do you shave there? (pointing to Cary's dimpled chin).
Audrey: You know what's wrong with you? Cary: No. What? Audrey: Absolutely nothing!
Cary and Audrey gliding on the Seine. Cary: "Boy when you come on, you come on! Audrey: Well...come on!
