Based on Paul's One Sings, The Other Doesn't (1977), Corey also wanted to keep it in Paris. And so... Charade (1963). Famously known as "the best Hitchcock movie Hitchcock never made," Charade was actually directed by another movie god: Stanley Donen. (Look at his filmography and deny it.) Charade is a romantic screwball comedy mystery - about as 1960s as a film can get. Gorgeous locations (Paris), gorgeous costumes (Givenchy), and gorgeous stars (Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant, Walter Matthau)! Audrey Hepburn plays Reggie Lampert, an unhappy wife who longs for a divorce from her secretive husband. When she finds out he's been murdered, the thrills...I don't know, man. These '60s comedies are so boring... Paul and Corey talk about what works and what doesn't in the film, the incredible careers of all involved, and only barely talk about the CIA! Enjoy, or as the French would say "Enjoy." (This was a French person who knows English.)
