Daniel Kremer on PARIS WHEN IT SIZZLES
0 views • Sep 18, 2023
After adapting The Manchurian Candidate, legendary screenwriter George Axelrod turned his attention to this “marshmallow-weight hokum” directed by Richard Quine. William Holden and Audrey Hepburn play a capricious screenwriter and his eager to please secretary in a comedy rife with in-jokes and cameos including Tony Curtis and Marlene Dietrich. The passage of time has given Quine’s breezy romance a boost; it’s now seen as an enjoyable nostalgia item and superbly photographed travelogue. Trailers from Hell showcases classic previews of past movie attractions punctuated with humorous commentary by iconic filmmakers. http://www.trailersfromhell.com But wait! There's more!

Paris When It Sizzles
Hollywood producer Alexander Meyerheimer has hired drunken writer Richard Benson to write his latest movie. Benson has been holed up in a Paris apartment supposedly working on the script for months, but instead has spent the time living it up. Benson now has just two days to the deadline and thus hires a temporary secretary, Gabrielle Simpson, to help him complete it in time.
