A perfect tonic for the blues

Rating: 10/10 (29 August 2006)

I'm sure everything about this movie that needs to be said has already been said. It is one of the greatest movie comedies ever made, if not the greatest. THE classic among classics.
There are quite a few goofs in it, but who cares? The film is one hilarious goof after another, both intentionally and accidentally.
Even the fact that never would anyone mistake either Jack Lemmon or Tony Curtis (whether in drag or not) as anything but full-blooded heterosexual males, doesn't deter one away from the enjoyment. In fact it adds to it.
I have watched this film countless times, and never tire of it. It always leaves me in good humour, particularly after what has to be the best line of the whole movie, i.e the closing remark "nobody's perfect". That may be so, but "Some like it Hot" is the perfect tonic for the blues.
