Despite the fact I'm writing the remake, I love Some Like It Hot. It is so funny, it was called "The Funniest Comedy of All Time". That's right all time. One of the reasons I seem to love it though, is the Marilyn Monroe factor. Of course you know of my love for the song "I Wanna Be Loved By You" and how I'm planning on singing it at the 85th Annual Academy Awards (oh wait, you don't know that), but it's just, I don't know, I just love it. If you've never seen it, it's about two guys, Joe and Jerry, two musicians working at a speakeasy during the prohibition. After the place gets busted, they have to find work, but witness a mob killing trying to get to an audition. Fearing for their lives, they crossdress and join an all girl band on it's way to Florida, meeting Sugar Kane (Marilyn) along the way on the train, which by the way leads to a sleeping car berth cocktail party. In Florida, they learn Sugar is desperate for a rich Sugar daddy. Getting an idea, Joe becomes a double agent, posing as the rich, yet somewhat seclusive playboy heir to Shell Oil Company in order to woo Sugar. Meanwhile, the Jerry finds himself being come on to by an old rich widower. At first he tries to shoo him, then goes along with it when he finds out the real numbers to the old bat's fortune. Things are going well until the hotel is host to a gathering of the "Lovers of the Italian Opera Association", a clever cover for the Chicago-Italian Mafia. The end leading to a wild goose chase between the three of them, ending with the four in the rich old bat's boat, Joe and Sugar together, and Jerry revealing he's a man, the old koot saying one of the most popular phrases in history, "Well, nobody's perfect". You can see why I love this movie. If you're as interested in The Golden Era of Hollywood as I am, watch this movie or die. I swear to god you'll love it!WATCHitBITCH!
Joe romances Sugar
Jerry sacrifices dignity for millions
The boys turned girls in their draggy glory
