This is my second post on a set in Paris Film Starring Audrey Hepburn. My first was The gorgeous Funny Face.
Charade follows Regina Lampert (Hepburn), a young woman who discovers upon her return to Paris that her husband has been murdered. She soon learns that he was involved in a theft of a quarter of a million dollars during World War II, and that three of his former associates are now after the money. Regina teams up with Peter Joshua (Grant), a mysterious stranger who may or may not be involved in the theft, to try to find the money and stay alive.
Charade is kind of a combination of a romance, a murder mystery, with some scary elements set against iconic Parisisn scenes. There are numerous surprises, for sure I did not see the gratifying ending coming.
My next Audrey Hepburn in Paris movie will be Sabrina.

Brilliant film. I didn't think about it as being Parisian but you are right, it totally is. As is Sabrina. Great ideas for Paris in July.
