LE BAL DES CINGLÉS - Richard Quine - 1957 - ★★★⭑

Une comédie de guerre enlevée plein de rythme et d’extravagance. Des dialogues ciselés et piquants, un humour décapant d’une grande finesse psychologique qui ne manque pas d’imprévisibilité.

I don't KNOW if it was intentional, I doubt it, but it

The star of #AlfredHitchcock's #VERTIGO & #JoshuaLogan's #Oscar-nominated #PICNIC is turning 90 today.
A couple more #movies:
She also did great work in the first half of #RichardQuine's #BellBookAndCandle, as a #NewYork witch seducing #JamesStewart.
And she's very funny in #MarkRobson's #PHFFFT, opposite #JackLemmon.
