Love in the Afternoon is a 1957 romantic comedy starring Audrey Hepburn, Gary Cooper, and Maurice Chevalier, and directed by Billy Wilder. It should not be confused with Love in the Afternoon, a 1972 film directed by Éric Rohmer.
Maurice Chevalier plays a private detective who lives in Paris. Audrey Hepburn plays his daughter Arianne, a student of the cello. Hepburn takes an interest in her father's case files and soon becomes enamored of American playboy Frank Flannigan (Cooper); jealous husbands frequently hire Chevalier to track Cooper. When Hepburn learns of one husband's intention to kill Cooper, she finds him and warns him. She is eager to start a relationship but fears her inexperience will ruin her chances with him, so she pretends to be a mysterious woman of the world. Eventually Cooper hires Chevalier to find out more about her. The story resolves as Hepburn's innocence inspires Cooper to reform and marry her.
