The Joy of Positivity: One, Two, Three (1961)

You know a movie is bleak when it's cynical even by Billy Wilder standards

Filmmakers do not get more cynical than Billy Wilder. The legendary writer William Holden described as having a “mind full of razor blades” had an appropriately and hilariously dim view on humanity expressed most purely and bitterly in two of his less commercially successful comedies: the witheringly dark 1951 Film Noir Ace in the Hole and the 1961 satire One, Two, Three.
