However, I think the strength of the unglamourous character actors (the three "bad guys" and Walter Matthau) also form a large part of Charade's appeal for me. My favorite moment in the film occurs when Reggie absent-mindedly grabs another of Bartholomew's cigarettes only seconds after having lit the first one. Bartholomew is incredulous: "Do you have any idea how much those things cost?" That plus the extended pause he takes as he recovers from the shock is priceless. I look forward to reading the scrip you forwarded!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
