Reviews
Mine: A great movie. Fun as all get out. Jack Lemmon's best movie and that is saying something. Even Marilyn shows some talent here. Maybe the best last line of a movie ever.
Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: Legendary comedy by Wilder and I. A. L. Diamond about two musicians who witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre and try to elude their pursuers by joining an all-girl band heading for Miami. Sensational from start to finish, with dazzling performances by Lemmon and Curtis, a memorably comic turn by Monroe as Sugar Kane, and Oscar-winning costumes by Orry-Kelly. Brown has film's now-classic closing line. Basis for hit Broadway musical Sugar.
