This was in the late '50s,
early '60s.

1:18:04
And Louis Malle had just made
his most expensive film, which
had cost 2 1/2 million dollars.

1:18:09
And Billy Wilder asks him
what the film is about.

1:18:12
And Louis Malle says,
"It's sort of a dream within a dream."

1:18:15
And Billy Wilder says,
