This is an exceptional DVD transfer of an exceptional movie. Criterion has done a elegant job of restoring Charade to its intellectual glory. The film is presented in its new 1.85:1 aspect ratio. The print is positive, crisp, and glorious to perceive. You feel as if you can approach out and touch the actors.
And what actors! The film features the dashing older version of Cary Grant and the youthful gamine Audrey Hepburn, with enough chemistry between them to ignite a fireworks factory. The dwelling is a convoluted and flimsy trifle about icy war peek shenanigans, with cases of unsuitable identity and episodes of grave misfortune for Miss Audrey. But Cary, the classic righteous guy in cad’s clothing, is there to build the day. In addition to which he provides chaste romance that sizzles beneath the civility.
Audio commentary is provided by director Stanley Donen and screenwriter Peter Stone. While enchanting and droll in spots, it does trudge a bit over the length of the film. It may be better to check it out when you accept something in the film that you would like to hear dissected. Otherwise, you’d be better to stick with the toothsome, corny dialogue spoken in the dulcet tones of Cary and Audrey. The soundtrack music is to also to be savored, done up in classic ’60s survey movie style by the movie maestro Henry Mancini.

If you have nothing to do on a rainy day and acquire a DVD player, this is the movie you want to have on hand to pop in the machine and articulate you from care. It’s a keeper (and it comes in a keeper case!) .
I got this DVD for Christmas and I wasn’t disappointed. Stanley Donen, director of musicals such as “Singin’ In The Rain” starring Gene Kelly, brought together Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn (who looks knowing, as always) in this wonderfully-written tale about a Parisian widow (Hepburn) who is being pursued by three uncertain men (two of which are played by George Kennedy – an well-behaved “heavy” – and James Coburn at his most menacing) who want to acquire out about a colossal sum of money her slow husband supposedly had. Grant is the generous stranger but eventually you start to wonder: is he working with these men? Does he want the money for himself? Or is he really the sparkling, older man Audrey finds herself falling in admire with?
Enhanced by a lush collect by the behind Henry Mancini, photographed beautifully in Paris and containing righteous acting and deliciously unpleasant dialogue by writer Peter Stone, “Charade” is a film that should be in every serious DVD collection. Grant is older but better, like shapely wine, and Ms. Hepburn … well there have been millions of words weak to narrate her and I can’t add to them other than to say the world lost a good talent at her death.
You’ll indulge in “Charade” for a long, long time.
