About this book

"Selected as America's Funniest Movie by the American Film Institute, Some Like It Hot remains an undisputed classic, 50 years on, as it continues to capture three of American culture's great preoccupations ... details the history of this side-splitting farce from its roots as an obscure 1951 German film to ... where Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond transposed the material to the Roaring Twenties and ... cast the brilliant Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon in the starring roles"--Jacket.
