Well, beginning my foray into classic cinema, I started with this film. This film had great chemistry between Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis, and Marilyn Monroe. Lemmon was especially great, I'm eager to see him in some dramatic work because I thought he showed real talent in this comedic piece. I was actually very pleased with the camera work in this one. While Wilder chose to just use one long take sometimes for conversation pieces, which I didn't like, the camerawork ultimately was a strong point of the film.
Really good supporting cast as well with George Raft, Joe E. Brown, and a 3rd act cameo by Nehemiah Persoff. Ultimately a very good film, maybe not as funny as advertised, but still well put together.
