Marilyn Monroe and Jack Lemmon in Some Like It Hot

dvr this

Arguably the funniest movie ever made, Billy Wilder’s movie about cross-dressing musicians (Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis) and the most amazing ditz to ever grace the screen (Marilyn Monroe) was shot at San Diego’s Hotel del Coronado and has as many quotable lines as Casablanca, Wizard of Oz and Star Wars combined. On NBC’s Smash, about the making of a fictional Marilyn Monroe musical, half of the clips that the Monroe wannabe’s watch to get into character are from Some Like It Hot. And rightfully so; it is her iconic role. And Lemmon and Curtis were at top form. A must see.
