Some Like It Hot
🎬 Some Like It Hot (1959)
Dir. Billy Wilder | USA | 2h | Comedy
After witnessing a Mafia hit, two Chicago musicians (Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon) flee the city disguised as women in an all-female jazz band bound for Florida. Complications arise when one falls for the band’s singer (Marilyn Monroe) and the other attracts the attention of a millionaire suitor.
Hilarious, subversive, and endlessly quotable, Some Like It Hot is a masterclass in comic timing, performance, and screenplay craft. Billy Wilder’s film playfully pushes gender roles, romantic conventions, and the limits of 1950s Hollywood — all while delivering laugh after laugh.
With iconic performances from Curtis, Lemmon, and Monroe, razor-sharp dialogue, and one of the greatest final lines in cinema history, this remains one of the most beloved comedies ever made.
