Kiss Me, Stupid

No one could ever incorrectly accuse Billy Wilder of being cynical, but given the jaundiced nature of his outlook and work, there’s still something bracing about Kiss Me, Stupid’s acerbic quality. Not only does Wilder put female exploitation and fragile masculinity through the wringer, but marriage and upward mobility. If you want to achieve your dreams, then you better be prepared to pay and ... read more

Description: Billy Wilder’s comic gem Kiss Me, Stupid stars Dean Martin (Some Came Running, Bells Are Ringing), Ray Walston (South Pacific, TV’s “My Favorite Martian”) and Kim Novak (Vertigo, Pal Joey). When pop crooner Dino (Dean Martin), is detoured to Climax, NV on his way to Las Vegas, he stumbles on fame-hungry, would-be songwriters Orville (Ray Walston) and Barney (Cliff Osmond), the wheels are set in motion for a comedy that is pure Wilder. Collaborating with his longtime screenwriter I.A.L. Diamond (Some Like It Hot, The Apartment), Wilder weaves a comic tale of social mores, sexual gamesmanship and the price of fame. K ... (more)

"Kiss Me Stupidin lähtöasetelma varioi yhtä americanan myyttisintä asetelmaa, jossa ohikulkija, tässä tapauksessa Dean Martin, jumahtaa jonnekin Jumalan hylkäämään tuppukylään ja sekaantuu pienen yhteisön asioihin, tässä tapauksessa sukupuoliasioihin. Wilderin sysimusta pettämiskomedia jätti kaksijakoisen tunnun. Toisaalta studiosysteemin komedialle jopa nihilistinen katse avioelämään ja seksiin sekä yllättävän rivot läpät hätkähdyttivät. Toisaalta, leijonanosa eloku"

Kiss Me, Stupid

“No one could ever incorrectly accuse Billy Wilder of being cynical, but given the jaundiced nature of his outlook and work, there’s still something bracing about Kiss Me, Stupid’s acerbic quality. Not only does Wilder put female exploitation and fragile masculinity through the wringer, but marriage and upward mobility. If you want to achieve your dreams, then you better be prepared to pay and pay and pay. Kiss Me, Stupid is something of a stepchild in Wilder’s work, with many people ready to close the book on him post-The Apartment, there’s a flawed, but tremendously rewarding body of work that’s being forgotten about. I have a deep fondness for Kiss Me, Stupid, think One, Two, Three is overdue for critical reevaluation, and find Irma La Douce and The Fortune Cookie to be hi” read more
