Synopsis

Watch: One, Two, Three 1961 123movies, Full Movie Online – Berlin is the epitome of political and economic polarization. A microcosm of that polarization is the life of American C.R. MacNamara, known as Mac to his friends. He is Coca-Cola’s head of West Berlin operations, although he feels he deserves to be Coca-Cola’s head of European operations based in London. His wife Phyllis wants him to get a steady, stable job back in head office in Atlanta. His West Berlin staff is still used to treating him like their old master, the Führer. The one exception is his secretary Ingeborg, who is the latest in his long line of secretary mistresses. And he’s working on a trade agreement of getting Coca-Cola into the Russian market. His life goes into a tailspin when he hosts Scarlett Hazeltine, 17-year-old spoiled partygirl daughter of his Atlanta-based boss, Wendell Hazeltine. Unlike most of the stops she’s made on her European trip, Scarlett seems to like West Berlin and stays longer than expected. On the day that Mac learns that Mr. and Mrs. Hazeltine will be in Berlin in 24 hours to retrieve their daughter, he learns that Scarlett has married Otto Ludwig Piffl, a staunch East German Communist. Mac feels this marriage will ruin his career and does whatever he can to get rid of Otto for good and wipe any record of the marriage off the official books. But when Mac further learns that Scarlett is pregnant, he must get Otto back, which is more difficult than getting rid of his was, and to make him respectable in Mr. Hazeltine’s eyes. Meanwhile, Phyllis has her own ideas of what is right and wrong in both Scarlett’s and Mac’s lives and takes appropriate action..
Plot: C.R. MacNamara will do anything to get a promotion within the Coca-Cola company, including looking after boss W.P. Hazeltine’s rebellious teenage daughter, Scarlett. When Scarlett visits Berlin, where C.R. is stationed, she reveals that she is married to a communist named Otto Piffl — and C.R. recognizes that Otto’s anti-establishment stance will clash with his boss’s own political views, possibly jeopardizing his promotion.

Another Delightful and Witty Comedy of Billy Wilder
In West Berlin, the ambitious executive of Coca-Cola C.R. MacNamara (James Cagney) is negotiating with the Russian representatives the opening of several factories in the Iron Curtain, expecting to be promoted to a high position in Europe. However, his boss Wendell P. Hazeltine (Howard St. John) calls him from Atlanta and tells him to call off the negotiation since it is against the policy of the company. Further, he asks MacNamara to take care of his seventeen year-old daughter Scarlett (Pamela Tiffin) that is traveling through Europe during her two weeks vacation in Berlin. When MacNamara and his wife Phyllis (Arlene Francis) meet Scarlett in the airport, they feel that she would be a troublemaker with her “hot blood”. However, Scarlett gets sick and stays for two months in MacNamara’s house. When Wendell calls MacNamara telling that he would come to Berlin with his wife to bring Scarlett back to USA, Phyllis calls her husband and tells that Scarlett has vanished. However, Scarlett appears in MacNamara’s office and tells that she got married with the communist Otto Ludwig Piffl (Horst Buchholz). The smart MacNamara plots a scheme to get rid of the youngster; but when he finds that Scarlett is pregnant, he reverts the situation and decides to transform Otto in the ideal son-in-law.

“One, Two, Three” is another delightful and witty comedy of Billy Wilder in times of Cold War. The hilarious story is developed in a fast pace, with wonderful and ironic lines and situations making fun of the socialist and the capitalist regimes. James Cagney has one of his best roles (if not the best) performing the ambitious and smart executive. One of my favorite lines is the one that Otto says “I have been a capitalist for only three hours and I already owe more than ten thousand dollars”. This is the first time that I watch this movie, and I imagine how funny it would be before the fall of the Berlin Wall. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): “Cupido Não Tem Bandeira” (“Cupid does not Have Flag”)

Review By: claudio_carvalho
It’s fast, it’s screwball, it’s Cagney
“One, two, three” is a perfect comedy and Billy Wilder at his finest. James Cagney stars in one of his last leading roles as a Coca-Cola head manager in Berlin: he’s efficient, fast-talking, eloquent and very insightful person who can always find a way out or in if he wants to. The story revolves around him and his boss’ daughter who gets herself mixed up with a communist and marries him. And that’s when the non-stop comedy starts; don’t expect to leave for a minute because there’s so much of everything going on in every second of this picture. Billy Wilder is one of my favorite directors and screenwriters of all times and the script of this masterpiece he co-wrote with his long-time collaborator I.A.L. Diamond – their duo is responsible for such timeless hits as “Some like it hot” (1959) and “The apartment” (1960). Needless to say that the script is a highlight of this movie and every single line, even if said by a secondary character, is hilarious. All of the actors are energetic and keep the pace of the movie going at the highest speeds, especially Jim Cagney who at the time was over 60 years old – you cannot take your eyes off of him and cling to everything he says because his lines are filled with jokes up to the brim. And all this buffoonery and madness that is happening on the screen is framed with wonderful and lively music of “Sabre Dance” by Aram Khachaturian that will stick in the back of your mind for hours after the ending of the movie. “One, two, three” is an outstanding example of a great screwball comedy and the funniest 100 minutes in your life. Sitzen machen!
