Ingrid Bergman, Yves Montand

BEST QUOTE
When Tony impersonates an entire courtroom case, speeded up!

BEST MOMENT
Plenty to choose from, mainly involving Perkins being incredibly cute. One of these is when he gets terribly drunk (for real, apparently!) and has to be escorted home by Ingrid Bergman (his romantic interest) AND her husband! He passes out in the car so at every motion his head knocks against the window, noticing this Bergman then gently holds her hand up between him and the glass.

WORST MOMENT
When Bergman's character breaks up with Phillipe (Tony) and he goes running down the spiral stairs in tears. By 'worst moment' I don't mean it's badly acted or made, the very opposite in fact, it's heartbreaking.

This is very close to being my favourite of Tony's films after Psycho, and I mean that honestly. Perhaps that there are many elements of this film that spark my interests on a more personal level (the gorgeous Parisian setting, for one), but I really would recommend it as it's very sweet and stylish.
