8/10
Good, old-style entertainment
1 December 1999
This is one of Billy Wilder's most entertaining and easily watchable films. His direction is unintrusive but carefully guided, and again he drags forth masterful performances from his actors. Charles Laughton is brilliant, and if it hadn't been for The Bridge on the River Kwai, he and Wilder would have won Oscars for their work.
