Some Like It Hot
After seeing a murder in the mafia, there seems to be more strange events being performed by the talented saxophone player Joe (Tony Curtis) and his longtime friend, Jerry (Jack Lemon). Both friends decide to make a quick plan to escape from Chicago with their lives. It is a plan that looks ingenious through masquerading as women, and is guaranteed to the female jazz band and jumps into a train heading for sunny Florida, where there seems to be more challenges ahead.

Fifty-five years old and still a comedy masterpiece.

Brilliant performances, wondrous comic timing and the greatest pay-off line ever written: this one's still red hot.

In many ways, the ultimate Billy Wilder film -- replete with breathless pacing, transvestite humor, and unflinching cynicism.

Re-viewing Some Like It Hot is invariably a rewarding experience, not because it is a great comedy but because it is a great movie.

"Nobody's perfect" is the last line. Wilder, Lemmon, Curtis and Monroe come pretty close.

Here is one of those movies that persists beyond the implications of a mere time frame, resonating with audiences like a very fine wine.

Lemmon digs out most of the laughs in the script. As for Marilyn, she's been trimmer, slimmer and sexier in earlier pictures.

Everyone has a canonical classic which they just don't get. This one is mine.

One of Wilder's funniest satires.

The Great American Comedy (if you discount the Marx Brothers).

The funniest comedy I've seen in years.

Pictures like this, with a sense of humor that is as broad as it can be sophisticated, come along only infrequently.
