SOME LIKE IT HOT: Secrets, Scandals, and Marilyns Mystique

The American Film Institute called Some Like it Hot the greatest film comedy ever made. It s a tale of two musicians on the run from the mob, hiding out in an allgirl band. .. and when it first hit theaters, audiences weren t ready. Coming at the tail end of the conservative 1950s, the movie made a mockery of uptight American attitudes about sex. But even more shocking than the movie s premise were the backstage feuds, secret affairs, and a blonde bombshell with a more sophisticated strategy than anyone expected. This is the story of Some Like it Hot the comedy that nearly everyone said could never be made, and that helped bring the most powerful men in Hollywood to their knees.
