Some Like It Hot gets a free, post-Christmas showing at the Brooklyn Public Library next Tuesday, December 26, at 2 pm.
Archie Winsten first reviewed this Jazz Age-set comedy classic for the New York Post in 1959:
“To get down to cases, Marilyn does herself proud, giving a performance of such intrinsic quality that you begin to believe she’s only being herself and it is herself who fits into that distant period and this picture so well.”
During an earlier interview for NBC Radio’s Monitor, Marilyn famously told host Dave Garroway that she ‘would like to retire to Brooklyn’ – listen here.
