	Description

	Billy Wilder's classic comedy stars Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis as a pair of unemployed musicians who inadvertently become witnesses to the St. Valentine Day's Massacre. To escape the wrath of the gangsters, Joe (Curtis) and Jerry (Lemmon) are forced to hit the road in drag, taking the only jobs available with an all-girl band bound for Miami. Enroute, both men fall for lead singer and blond bombshell Sugar Kane, (Marilyn Monroe), but are unable to fulfill their desires for fear of revealing their identity. Joe tries to get around this by adopting a third identity for seduction, that of a shy millionaire who sounds strangely like Cary Grant. Meanwhile Jerry has his own problems, fighting off the advances of Osgood E. Fielding, a real millionaire hypnotized by his/her charms.

After watching Monroe in this 1958 comedy it's hard to believe that before the year 1962 rolled around she would be dead by her own doing. Apparently Monroe was already quite troubled when this movie...

It was named the funniest movie of all time, and that isn't just cause you get to see Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis in drag. This story of two men disguising themselves as women to avoid the mob who...
