Review of Some Like It Hot (1959) by Four Star F — 05 Feb 2013
Often considered one of the greatest comedies of all time, this film is certainly hilarious and special. This was one of Marilyn Monroe's best performances and her costars were absolutely brilliant.
As far as humor goes it cannot get much zanier and crazier then this. In this Billy Wilder directed comedy, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, and of course Marilyn Monroe teamed up in making a great movie. In the era of Chicago gangsters, two male musicians witness a shooting that they wish they had not.
In order to escape they join a traveling band. The only catch is that it's an all women group and so they get dressed up to win the job. The rest of the film follows their crazy cross-dressing antics with the band.
It includes two tremendous love stories on completely different ends of the spectrum! The movie was filmed in black and white to camouflage all the makeup but as you will find out no movie's perfect!
