Nobody's perfect indeed! Classic. Jack Lemmon is an awful drag actor, but this will always be one of my favorite movies of all time. Utterly loopy and utterly fun.
Patti: one of those endings I've never forgotten. Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon were purposely unconvincing in drag so those in the audience could experience how ridiculous their situation was. Plus, it added to the scenes with Marilyn Monroe and Joe E. Brown. I agree with John that this is one of the best. Yours truly, Toe.

ReplyDeleteIt's a great closing line because it's funny, unexpected, a bit naughty for the time but also truly true - thanks Patti.
ReplyDeleteOne if the few last lines I never forget. And one of my ten top favorite movies.
ReplyDeleteIt is a classic. I was always a Joe E. Brown fan too.
