Fabulous movie! Of course it's Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant. How can you get any better than that??

Henry Mancini and Audrey Hepburn rox <3

I love this flick; a great parody of Hitchcock, but at the same time, a great Hitchcockian suspenser, and the dialogue between Grant and Hepburn sparkles like the best champagne. Look for the Criterion DVD if you can; due to a technical oversight, "Charade" is public domain and there are tons of crap versions out there. (They forgot to include a copyright statement in the closing credits, and that technically made it public domain.)

A MASTERPIECE. Mancini's music, Maurice Binder's Main Titles, Grant, Hepburn, Matthau, Coburn at their best. Crisp, intelligent, suspenseful script & direction. A CLASSIC. This has been (along with Sidney Pollock's *Three Days of the Condor*) rightly called one of the best Hitchcock film's ever made which was not directed by Hitch. It is obviously Stanley Donan's *homage* to Hitch, as well as a stylish addition to the genre in its own right!!

$5 is a perfectly reasonable price for a DVD in decent quality. If I pay $5 and get a crap copy, I don't get what I pay for. I'm being ripped off.

Thank you.

Can't get any better

Have not seen the Criterion DVD of this, but I am sure it is better than the $5 version I snatched up on the internet. Horrible gaps in its opening titles and even the film, and the color was terrible. You get what you pay for.

Where would movies be without Maurice Binder and Saul Bass doing titles.

Watched this yesterday, love the title sequence (plus the film). Thought it was Saul Bass but surprised to find it's Maurice Binder. Anyway, fab.

Suspenseful films like this aren't made any more. "Charade" is one of the best.
