I literally just watched this for the first time 2 days ago. It was cute and witty but rather disposable. Maurice Chevalier was the best part of it, although I also loved the scene where a drunk Gary Cooper keeps rolling the champagne cart back and forth across his hotel room with the gypsy band members.
I'll echo Shane's view of it. The age difference between Audrey and Coop is cavernous but their dual charisma smooths that over for the most part, Chevalier is a charmer and as an added bonus John McGiver is in it! But it's not an essential work for any of them.
I saw it some years ago and because I generally find Gary Cooper as fascinating as a wooden post, I couldn't get through it. One, Two, Three is a much better Billy Wilder film.
