Underneath this amazingly scripted film (not to mention it looks marvelous) is a critique of capitalism. On how it has made work and home life inseparable from one another. Where the upper classes take everything from you, even your bed. Some are takers and some get took I guess.

A masterpiece of tone: addressing some profoundly dark themes in a manner of true respect, neither dismissive nor disparaging, allowing them time to breathe and ultimately, release. The film’s humor belies our personal and social dysfunction, revealing both our wounds and the powers that inflict them. The end result is life-affirming catharsis.

A masterclass in mode: particularly romance, humor, & drama. The writing creates a lead who desperately wants something and walks a constant, thriller- esque, tightrope to get it. You're in his shoes as he's made a Faustian deal to accomplish his ends. But, as the story transpires, the sweetness & humor unfold in a way that makes this a perfect hanging out movie. The sexual harassment is dated, but otherwise it is perfect. Kudos to MacLaine and the perfect anamorphic black and white photography.

Everybody is pretty great in this. There are at least a few moments that can make you feel pretty uncomfortable, given that the movie is almost 60-years-old and very much of its time. But that's probably a good thing.

Billy Wilder delivers the cynical edge that often characterised his work, but balances it with more gentle humour in places, romance and genuinely touching moments of pathos. This is a good story skilfully told, and you can't ask for much more than that.

It's a fine enough film. Wilder's signature dialogue has always grated on me as something too artificial: actors reading from a page. But it is well paced, and moderately entertaining. Were it not for the fabulous Shirley MacLaine, who successfully tugged on my heartstrings, I should have written this off.
