“I don't care how rich he is, as long as he has a yacht, his own private railroad car, and his own toothpaste,” sighs Marilyn Monroe in director Billy Wilder’s beloved comedy Some Like It Hot. What she got instead were two broke, bickering, cross-dressing musicians (Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon) running from a murderous gangster. An instant hit upon its release, it dished out comedic tidbits of mass murder, seduction, sexual stereotypes, and drag-queen culture – and is still as funny today as it was six decades ago. (US, 1959, 122min., English | Dir. Billy Wilder)
