Task: Sentiment Analysis
Input (English): a miracle of filmmaking , " some like it hot " is a brilliant film , and maybe the foremost example of slapstick comedy brought to screen with clever sight gags and plot twists .
it is the pinnacle of writer - director billy wilder 's career , a stunning feat considering the vast catalogue of films he had helped make .
jerry ( lemmon ) and joe ( curtis ) are two stage musicians who go from gig to gig , trying to earn enough money to feed themselves .
one night , as they 're playing at a banned prohibition speakeasy , the place is raided . as it turns out , the owner , spats columbo ( george raft ) was ratted out by toothpick charlie ( george e . stone ) .
several weeks later , on valentine 's day , jerry and joe go to a garage to pick up a car and end up witnessing a gangland murder of charlie by columbo in a parking garage .
eager to escape , the duo are forced to take a job in florida with all expenses paid .
the only catch . .
its a girls band .
so josephine ( curtis ) and daphne ( lemmon )
, make their way onto the train and go to florida .
on the way there , they meet sugar kane ( monroe ) , a bombshell singer who is looking for love .
jerry and joe immediately fall for the singer , but there 's two problems : 1 ) they 're in drag , and 2 ) millionaire osgood fielding ( joe e . brown )
falls madly in love with daphne .
what follows in pure hysteria , still complicated further by the arrival of spats columbo to florida for the " italian opera lovers festival " .
tony curtis is hysterical as joe / josephine , especially in his preposterous attempts to woo sugar .
marilyn monroe , in a wonderfully comic performance , is sugar , providing incredible timing and sex appeal , along with true sincerity .
the scenes , however , are all stolen by either brown or lemmon .
lemmon is hysterical as daphne .
cast as the less rational one , lemmon 's performance is ridiculously crazy , it is disorder in the style all billy wilder 's .
brown is particularly hilarious as osgood , as we are treated to the finest kind of comedic irony .
he manages to use lemmon 's ingenious performance as a springboard for an even loonier performance as a completely eccentric millionaire .
every set - piece is flawless ,
as wilder brilliantly changes settings constantly , and uses every comic trick in the book to make his picture .
wilder 's script is stunning , as he carefully combines gangsters , cross - dressing , romance , sex , music , gender roles , and social taboos in a riotous blend of wit and oddball craziness .
wilder manages to create scenes of utter hysteria , so pitch - perfect that the audience is dying of laughter with the last comic piece , the final line of this absolutely incredible film .
wilder 's is dead wrong when he says nobody 's perfect : billy wilder is , especially when he makes something this disastrously funny .
nobody 's perfect but billy wilder .
Output (English): P
