Some Like It Hot

“it ain’t loaded!” [comical amount of bullets falls out of pant leg] fantastic movie! feels like a very straightforward gangster movie until all of a sudden it isn’t for a very long time and when you’re finally like “wait, wasn’t this a mob movie?” they show back up. phenomenal.  i’ve actually never seen a full marilyn monroe film, what a delight! peak bombshell right there. (also she was 100% right about male sax players!!) unfortunately, the funniest (and therefore best character aside from sugar) is osgood, the creepy old millionaire with a huge mouth. (they named a cookie after that guy in real life tho so he was probably actually cool? lmao) speaking of osgood, real surplus of creeps in this movie! but still so fun to watch? only cringed a few times and that’s an achievement for me. as a final aside, joe’s accent as junior is like… so bad 2/52 for the 2025 criterion challenge
