One, Two, Three
This little blog is about soda can collecting and its peripheries. What does "peripheries" mean? I dunno, really. Perhaps Billy Wilder's movie One, Two, Three helps explain. Released in 1961, it's a jolly comedy with a little romance. It's also about Coca-Cola.
See, the protagonist is a Coca-Cola executive in West Berlin who is aiming to introduce Coca-Cola to the Soviet Union. Things become derailed when he needs to babysit the 17 year-old daughter of his boss in Berlin, and she falls in love with a communist. Coca-Cola becomes a thinly veiled metaphor throughout the film for all stuff American. I watched it on Netflix and it was an evening well spent. Perhaps you should buy a bottle of Coke and do so too.
