Schlemmer!!!!!

If you like to witness Jimmy Cagney being constantly on the brink of a heart-seizure AND a nervous breakdown for almost two hours, this is the right place. To cast an ageing actor best known for playing gangster-types in the role of a Coca-Cola exec is a good joke in itself. But it's surely not the only scoring off of Western capitalism (and of Eastern communism) in this hectic Cold War farce.

Some, one is inclined to say: too much of the (still funny) one-liners are downright silly, which deprives Wilder's movie of any possible satirical leanings, and the whole affair comes across as rather strident, but the ensemble cast is first-rate and the whole manic enterprise is over before you can even start grasping at what you didn't like about it.
