"Nobody's perfect."

Billy Wilder became forever famous for his classics; Some Like It Hot is one of those memorable, timeless, unforgettable films that has lost very little of its original appeal. Wilder has crafted a risqué, gender-binding comedy rich in sexual innuendo, steamy seductions, and spoofs of gender stereotypes.

The very straightforward plot follows two ... read more

Being a movie from the late 50's, with it's screwball comedy centering on the now-over-used theme of cross dressing men, you'd think that Some Like It Hot would've gone cold by now.
And yet, in large part due to Billy Wilder's sharp-edged yet still slapstick script, it hasn't.

"28.12. 2024 Billy Wilder's classic film tells the story of two struggling musicians who accidentally witness a mass murder, after which they escape dangerous gangsters by dressing up as women and joining an all-girl orchestra traveling to Florida by train. "Some Like It Hot" is probably the funniest depiction of the Prohibition era ever. Wilder succeeded where countless comedy directors failed: he mixed sharp and witty dialogue with perfectly paced comical scenes without ever being forced or pr"
