Trivia:
The character of Peter Joshua was named after Stanley Donen's two sons: Peter and Joshua. moreGoofs:
Errors in geography: Regina, fleeing Canfield, rides the Metro from Saint Jacques (signs prominently seen) to Palais Royal (mentioned several times in dialog). From Saint Jacques one cannot get anywhere near Palais Royal without changing trains at least once; but of course she never does (because Canfield would have another chance to catch her). moreSoundtrack:

When I first saw "Charade", I was convinced for the longest time this was a Hitchcock movie. Small wonder; Hitchcock all but set the standard for quality mystery films. Still, I give director Donen my sincerest apologies. Anyway, where did this film go?? Its tasteful humor, colorful characters and intelligent plot make "Charade" one of the best mystery movies ever made, but it's not well known even among classic films.
"Look for it. Look as hard and as fast as you can." This film ranks with "Clue", "The Name of the Rose" and "The 39 Steps" as one of the most enjoyable mysteries of all time. Makes a great dating/party movie.
