Directed & co-Written by BILLY WILDER, co-Wwritten by IAL DIAMOND. TAGLINES : "Not since SCARFACE, so much action. Not since the Marx Brothers, so much comedy. Not since THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH, so much Marilyn" "The MOST comedy ever made! The BIGGEST comedy ever made! The HOTTEST comedy ever made!" "The movie too HOT for words!" "Marilyn Monroe and her bosom companions... Tony Curtis... Jack Lemmon" - After two male musicians witness a mob hit, they flee the state in an all-female band disguised as women, but further complications set in. After two Chicago musicians, Joe and Jerry, witness the the St. Valentine's Day massacre, they want to get out of town and get away from the gangster responsible, Spats Colombo. They're desperate to get a gig out of town but the only job they know of is in an all-girl band heading to Florida. They show up at the train station as Josephine and Daphne, the replacement saxophone and bass players. They certainly enjoy being around the girls, especially Sugar Kane Kowalczyk who sings and plays the ukulele. Joe in particular sets out to woo her while Jerry/Daphne is wooed by a millionaire, Osgood Fielding III. Mayhem ensues as the two men try to keep their true identities hidden and Spats Colombo and his crew show up for a meeting with several other crime lords. SIX Academy Award Nominations including Best Director, Best Actor (Jack Lemmon), Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography. WON OSCAR for Best Costume Design. CAST includes Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, George Raft, Joe E Brown, Pat O'Brien, Nehemiah Persoff, John Shawlee, George E Stone, Mike Mazurki, Beverly Wills, Edward G Robinson Jr, Paul Frees (voice), Grace Lee Whitney. BEHIND THE SCENES TRIVIA : When Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon first put on the female makeup and costumes, they walked around the Goldwyn Studios lot to see if they could "pass" as women. Then they tried using mirrors in public ladies rooms to fix their makeup, and when none of the women using it complained, they knew they could be convincing as women. There is a scene on the train recreating this moment. Tony Curtis has said that he asked Billy Wilder if he could imitate Cary Grant for his stint as the millionaire in the movie. Wilder liked it and they shot it that way. Apparently, Grant saw the parody of himself and stated, jokingly, "I don't talk like that."
