Some Like It Hot

Billy Wilder / US, 1959 / 120 min.

Mix Billy Wilder’s dry humour, the deadpan faces of Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis, the sex appeal of Marilyn Monroe and a fast-paced storyline and what you get is the hilarious screwball comedy Some Like It Hot. The gender-bending classic is now screened in a 4K restoration.
