Some Like It Hot

Some Like It Hot (1959) more movies like this

directed by Billy Wilder
featuring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, George Raft, Pat O'Brien

The launching pad for Billy Wilder's comedy classic was a rusty old German farce, Fanfares of Love , whose two main characters were male musicians so desperate to get a job that they disguise themselves as women and play with an all-girl band in gangster-dominated 1929 Chicago. In this version, musicians Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon) ...

directed by Billy Wilder
featuring Jack Lemmon, Walter Matthau, Ron Rich, Cliff Osmond, Judi West

The British title of Billy Wilder's classic comedy was Meet Whiplash Willie -- for, despite Jack Lemmon's star billing, the movie's driving force is Oscar-winning Walter Matthau as gloriously underhanded lawyer "Whiplash" Willie Gingrich.

The Spirit of St. Louis

The Spirit of St. Louis (1957) more movies like this

directed by Billy Wilder
featuring James Stewart, Murray Hamilton, Patricia Smith, Bartlett Robinson, Marc Connelly

A misfire for all concerned, The Spirit of St. Louis can be chalked up as a courageous failure. At age 48, James Stewart was far too old to be convincing as 27-year-old "Lone Eagle" Charles Lindbergh. Director Billy Wilder, a past master of cynical pessimism, was clearly the wrong choice to helm this paean to ingenuous optimism. And the ...
