Synopsis

Billy Wilder's great film of tears and laughter as Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine, and Fred MacMurray wheel and deal over a New York apartment in a comedy of morality, motives, and unexpected romance. MacLaine has never been more appealing. Winner of five Oscars (including Best Picture, Director, and Screenplay) and worth at least 20 more. Billy Wilder---USA---1960---125 mins.

Great movie. Jack Lemmon in top form, Shirley MacLaine still gamine before she became kooky, Fred MacMurray convincing heel (those who say he was going against type forget about Double indemnity), fine supporting casst, good story, fine cinematography, literate script. Only flaw, ending doesn'st convince me; too good to be true. But then I suppose the public in 1961 could stand only so much cynicism. Or was there a residual fear of the code? That reservation aside, a movie worth watching over and over.
