Could hardly be better.

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2014)

Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond were genius screenwriters and Wilder was a terrific director. SLIH is a sublime movie. I have loved it from the first time I saw it. I introduced my daughter to it when she was about 11 and she loves it too. Every time I came into the house she was watching our VHS copy. At first irritated, I would end up watching it yet again and laughing like a drain at it. it just never loses its appeal and I find something else about the movie that maybe I had not noticed before. Lemmon and Curtis are at the top of their game and in spite of MM's difficult ways they turn in Oscar worthy performances, especially TC who had the most scenes with Marilyn. I hear there has been talk of remaking Some Like It Hot - that would be sacrilege - it could not be made any better than it was.
