‘Some Like It Hot’ in Santa Monica

Some Like It Hot gets a 65th anniversary screening at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica this Friday, November 15, at 7:30 pm.

“A joyful classic which delivers on comedic value no matter how many times you’ve seen it …When Billy Wilder put together gangsters, wise-cracking, cross-dressing heroes and Marilyn Monroe, he wrought a laugh riot played by an inspired cast. Key to its success – along with its vivid characters and brilliant performances – is the snappy pace throughout. Non-stop gags, invention, twists and comic incident flow, as Joe and Jerry – sexy Tony Curtis and screamingly funny Jack Lemmon – elude mob boss George Raft by wriggling into an all-girl jazz band, with Josephine and Daphne’s legendary drag act taking in amorous adventures, seductive deceptions and madcap pursuits.” – Angie Errigo, Empire
