CAST REVIEWS Review by James Johannessen (posted on 25-Apr-2007) Funny, Sexy, Sexy and just fun to watch. Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe have a great on-screen chemistry that draws you in and tickles you with slapstick humor and sexual innuendo thick enough to cut with a fork but you will want to use a spoon to get every drop. Let's face it - Marilyn Monroe screams sex and Billy Wilder squeezes every ounce of her talent out like tooth paste.
The movie slows down a couple of times but just long enough to catch your breath. This is a must see treasure of the 50’s – timeless – fun – witty and sexy.
