The legendary comic masterpiece from director Billy Wilder that's full of racy, funny lines.
Marilyn Monroe parades sexily in her role as singer Sugar Kane, object of pursuit by musicians Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon (who cannot reveal their lust for her because they are dressed as women in order to escape from murderous mobsters).
The performances by Lemmon and Curtis are terrific, and the script, by Wilder and IAL Diamond, sizzles with wit: stay put for Joe E Brown's now-classic closing line.
A milestone comedy to see and see again.
