Well the movie some like it hot is ... how do i classify it .... well --- classic romantic comedy :)
You can leave your brains at home kinda movie... But it is very well thought out and superbly scripted movie .. even if it is a "goofy" comedy ...
The cast includes - Marilyn Monroe , Tommy Curtis and Jack Lemmon... :)
Well the story goes like this ... Joe and Jerry are two musicians usually out of work and debt ridden .. they play in a night club(owned by Spatz -- an Italian mobster) in Chicago during the probation era. ..
Now unfortunately for them there is a raid (which they escape) now they are left jobless and coat less (Joe has a thing for gambling) in the freezing winter...
Their woes don't end there .. they are eye witness to the murder of a mob man called matchstick by Spatz ... So now with no money and mobsters chasing them ... these two idiots decide to dress up like girls and join an all girl band and perform in Florida.
They meet "Sugar" who is quite adorable but is blond, naive , has a drinking problem , has a thing for sax players and is the singer in the band. Here the fun starts when both of them fall for her.
In Florida Joe being the brains of the two manages to attract Sugar , as a Shell Oil millionaire....
While Daphani (Lemmon) is chased by a real millionaire :)
There is a Mobster Convention (Do u believe that??? !!) in Florida and Joe and Jerry meet their Nemesis there ..... so the chase begins again resulting in the demise of Spatz .... Then the happily ever after starts :)
The most funny part in the movie has to be ........ Jerry (Daphanie) forgetting that he is a boy ... marvels in the fact that a man is paying so much attention to him and has proposed to him .. they tango all night ( that is hilarious) and in the morning they are debating were their honeymoon will be ... man ... that scene stays with you ... :D
Total Paisa Vasool ... worth a watch ... so go pick up your pirated DVDs from national Market guys !! :P
