Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
viccentelles The best movie I've ever seen. The acting is great and I never get bored by the comedy... So much fun!!!
merelyaninnuendo Some Like It HotThe comic sequences aren't just some hocus pocus but contains some concrete material that has witty humor and amusing characters that focuses on the crisp of it and not some lame one liners or double entandre. I.A.L. Diamond and Billy Wilder; the screen writers, adapted the raw concept smartly and projected it onto various conversations that draws out laughs; especially the "train" sequence. Billy Wilder's brilliant execution is the key that helps keeping it to the ground and practical despite of having some sketchy scenes in it. Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis are flat out hilarious in their parallel roles and are supported thoroughly by Marilyn Monroe. Some Like It Hot defines and preaches others on how to create such genre feature and that is by focusing onto its lead characters that should and does go in here the journey that is full of chaos and bold but still never leaves the fun out of it.
Kirpianuscus because it is enough to see it. and to discover the atmosphere , the humor, the love stories and the science of a great director to give a complete film, out of clichés, vulgar solutions. a film like an ice cream. flavors, nuances, music, performances, costumes and a form of romanticism so subtle, delicate and seductive than transforms this film in a great artistic experience. because each detail has its perfect place. because the meet of Marlyne Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon seems like a Rubick cube. so, a gem.
postenjc-18566 I must protest most strongly. Some like it Hot is one the great films of all time. It has great personal meaning to me. The story line, the direction, the settings and the whole excellent cast, my opinion of this film can be summed up in the first word that actor Joe E Brown utters. ZOWIE! The DVD version of this film is part of my DVD collection.What then am I protesting? My hearing has completely gone south on me. Even with expensive hearing aids, I cannot watch this great Billy Wilder film and understand it. There are NO English CAPTIONS. I protest for myself and other hearing impaired viewers. The only time I can enjoy Some Like it Hot is when TCM broadcasts it with English captions I had the same captioning problem with another classic film 12 Angry Men. Lo and Behold , I discovered an Anniversary Edition of the first film directed by Sidney Lumet on Amazon. that had the captions, I so badly need. I purchased it at once, even though I have the non captioned disc. Why oh why, can Some Like it Hot be re-released as an anniversary edition with those needed captions, so that hearing impaired views can enjoy the film any time they wish. Then I'd have no reason to protest any longer. I'd have to say ZOWIE again... and again.
