It was our 12-year-old son who recommended we watch One, Two, Three on Christmas evening. You see, my husband is passing along his love for film to our sons and it seems the seventh grader already has seen this movie a few times. It's a great movie and a lot of fun to watch. The movie proves the time-tested advice to writers: Write what you know.
Billy Wilder, who was Jewish, was born in 1906 in what is now Poland. He fled Berlin during the Nazi regime and went on to become one of Hollywood's most brilliant directors. You might know some of his other movies such as Hollywood Boulevard, the Apartment, Ninotchka, Double Indemnity, Some Like It Hot, and so on.
