Some Like It Netflix
The Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis seminal classic is just one of the er, "new" movies streaming on Netfix this weekend.
This film is up there amongst Lemmon's and Billy Wilder's projects, such as The Fortune Cookie, Irma La Douce. Let's not mention Buddy Budy.
After witnessing a Mafia murder, slick saxophone player Joe (Tony Curtis) and his long-suffering buddy, Jerry (Jack Lemmon), improvise a quick plan to escape from Chicago with their lives.
Disguising themselves as women, they join an all-female jazz band and hop a train bound for sunny Florida. While Joe pretends to be a millionaire to win the band's sexy singer, Sugar (Marilyn Monroe), Jerry finds himself pursued by a real millionaire (Joe E. Brown) as things heat up and the mobsters close in.
If yiu haven't seen it, we urge yu to watch it this weekend.
