The Filmographers

Billy Wilder’s last film was a classy, black-and-white romance that paid homage to his mentor, Ernst Lubitsch. In The Seven Year Itch, Wilder goes widescreen and Technicolor to squeeze out plenty of boob jokes. Like what we do here on the Filmographers? Then please consider joining our Patreon!

Hollywood will never tire of remakes, even though few of them manage to capture the spirit of the original. Can the 1995 update of Billy Wilder's classic "Sabrina" buck that trend? It does have an all-star cast and a veteran director behind the camera. Surely this remake won't be like all those other remakes... Enjoy this preview of our Patreon exclusive.

Billy Wilder is still playing it safe. Sabrina (1954) has stars (Humphrey Bogart, Audrey Hepburn, and William Holden) and is based on a popular Broadway play.

In Billy Wilder's "Ace in the Hole," audiences were given a look at what happens when news becomes more focused on sensation than truth, more allegiant to entertainment than dignity. Twenty-five years later, Sidney Lumet took those themes even deeper in "Network," a movie that predicted anger-driven "infotainment" years before it became a thing. In this episode, we connect the dots between these two seminal films. Enjoy this preview of our Patreon exclusive.

Billy Wilder once made a romance in the ruins of post–World War II Berlin, so it makes sense that he'd also have the nerve to write and direct a full-fledged comedy about POWs in a Nazi prison camp. With his 1953 picture, "Stalag 17," the wacky set-ups just keep on coming. Like what we do here on the Filmographers? Then please consider joining our Patreon!

In complete charge of his destiny, Wilder followed the triumph of Sunset Boulevard with Ace in the Hole, perhaps his most personal movie—certainly his darkest. But the movie bombed, giving Billy Wilder his first taste of failure and changing the course of his career. Like what we do here on the Filmographers? Then please consider joining our Patreon!

Wilder vs. Mankiewicz! Swanson vs. Davis! Hollywood vs. New York! It's a ten-round, heavyweight bout between two classic films--two classics that explored similar terrain, were released within 10 weeks of each other, and duked it out at the 1950 Oscars.

Many have called Billy Wilder's work "cynical." Some have even called it "mean." But Wilder, well, he'd say he's just being honest. If that's the case, "A Foreign Affair" may just be his most honest film to date. It's also, in his own words, one of his most personal. Like what we do here on the Filmographers?

With only his third film as director, Billy Wilder made an all-time classic: “Double Indemnity.” But it wasn’t easy. He had to do it without his writing partner, Charles Brackett.

For his second movie, Billy Wilder made a hard turn away from fluffy comedy and set his sights not only on the action genre, but also on the burgeoning war occurring across the ocean. His sophomore effort may not be as well-known as his later works, but it's a critical entry in his career--and it's also one of Quentin Tarantino's favorite movies!
