He: Well, if anyone goes on the critical list, let me know. When the she is Audrey Hepburn and the he is Cary Grant you'd expect a bit of stylish film making, and you won't be let down by this prankish, playful picture, with a pair of charming jokers at the top of its deck of murder and intrigue. Reggie Lampert (Hepburn) arrives in Paris to find her estranged husband dead and the flat a mess. Several suspicious friends of the late husband turn up at the funeral and the Local CIA chief warns her that she is in danger.
