One, Two, Three, American screwball comedy film, released in 1961, that was directed by Billy Wilder and was based on a one-act play by Ferenc Molnár. The film is set during the Cold War and is noted for its lightning-fast pace.
James Cagney portrayed the brutish, wildly fast-talking head of Coca Cola’s West Berlin operation who finds himself coping simultaneously with a failing marriage, Soviet industrial spies, and the unenviable task of safeguarding his boss’s teenage daughter, Scarlett (played by Pamela Tiffin). His problems multiply when Scarlett reveals her impulsive marriage to a committed communist (played by Horst Buchholz), giving Cagney’s character just one day to resolve the issue before her father comes to collect her.
