Some Like It Hot

Dir: Billy Wilder: USA 1991 (122 mins) (Member’s Request)

Still one of Wilder’s funniest satires. Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon play jazz musicians on the run after witnessing the St Valentine’s Day massacre, masquerading in drag as members of an all-girl band (with resulting gender confusions involving Marilyn Monroe) to escape the clutches of Chicago mobster George Raft (bespatted and dime-flipping of course). An extremely funny and just brilliant classic.
