Billy Wilder's Explosive New Comedy
In Cold War-era West Berlin, American Coca-Cola executive C.R. 'Mac' MacNamara is tasked with playing babysitter to his boss' spoiled 17-year-old daughter Scarlett, who proves more difficult than anticipated when she reveals that she is pregnant by a Communist.

48Although crafting a comedy about such world-altering topics was bound to be difficult, a master like Wilder could pull it off.
Billy Wilder's One, Two, Three is a fast-paced, high-pitched, hard-hitting, lighthearted farce crammed with topical gags and spiced with satirical overtones. Story is so furiously quick-witted that some of its wit gets snarled and smothered in overlap. But total experience packs a considerable wallop.
The pace is blistering, and Wilder's deep-seated hatred of Germans has never been put to more comic use.
