Three things I didn't like in this movie:

1. This was a black and white film. I wish it was done in technicolour.
2. There was a lot of violence in the film and I've never liked violent scenes.
3. There were some extended kissing scenes and I think those long liplocks could have done with some good edits.

Smooches are so common in movies, it makes me wonder if these actors ever get glandular fever. Glandular Fever is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) that is found in the saliva of infected people and can spread through kissing. It's also called Mononucleosis, Mono or the Kissing Disease. EBV can be found in the saliva of people who have had glandular fever even after several months of they being asymptomatic. Some people may continue to have EBV in their saliva on and off for years.

What I loved about this movie is the comedy. There were many funny scenes and I can't forget the cheeky smiles of Daphne (played by Jack Lemmon) - simply unmissable and unforgettable. Marilyn Monroe was superb, so were Joan Shawlee and Joseph E Brown. I liked Tony Curtis but Jack was my favourite. He was hilarious. The songs were nice and so was Marilyn's dance. If you have two hours to spare, go and watch this 1959 flick - Some Like It Hot.

Cheers
