Some Like It Hot is a 1959 comedy film directed by Billy Wilder, who also wrote the screenplay along with frequent collaborator I. A. L. Diamond.Chicago, 1929: Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon) are down-on-their-luck jazz musicians who become accidental witnesses to a shooting similar to the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, perpetrated by mob boss "Spats" Columbo (George Raft). Unfortunately, being witnesses to a massacre is something the mob will kill people over, and Joe and Jerry have been spotted, so they need to get out of Chicago fast.It so happens that an all-girl band, which is leaving town by train, has openings for a bass player and a tenor saxophonist. This does mean that Joe and Jerry will have to pretend to be women, but they consider this better than dying. Donning makeup, wigs, and dresses, they introduce themselves as Josephine and Daphne (Jerry prefers that to Geraldine).The lead singer of the band is called Sugar (Marilyn Monroe), and she is gorgeous. She also has a weakness for tenor saxophonists, which is why her current band is girls only (she thinks). Sugar takes the new "girls" into her confidence, and Joe and Jerry both need reminding that they're incognito and not looking for trouble.The train ends up in Miami, where the band has a gig in a hotel. Sugar expresses the desire to be romanced by a millionaire, and Joe decides to take up another ID as a (male) millionaire to court her. Meanwhile, real millionaire Osgood Fielding III (Joe E. Brown) is courting "Daphne", and Jerry is starting to like it for more than the presents... which is unfortunate, since he's still a guy biologically. The coup de grâce comes when Joe and Jerry learn that the hotel is booked for a friends of Italian opera convention... attended by "Spats" Colombo and his gang, the very mobsters they fled Chicago to escape.Adapted as a stage musical, Sugar, in 1972, written by librettist Peter Stone and songwriters Julie Styne and Bob Merrill. This was revived 20 years later as Some Like It Hot: The Musical, with Tony Curtis (this time playing Osgood) headlining the cast. Another musical adaptation premiered on Broadway in 2022, written by librettists Amber Ruffin and Matthew Lopez and songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman.Character tropes go on to the Characters Sheet. | |

Aborted Arc: At the beginning of the train trip, Sweet Sue tells Beinstock that she thinks there's "something funny about those new girls" and he tells her he'll keep an eye on them. Nothing further ever comes of this. Possibly a subtle set-up for when Joe steals Beinstock's glasses to use as part of his "millionaire" persona. | |

It Will Never Catch On: Joe makes a flurry of Historical In Jokes at the beginning, dismissing Jerry as an alarmist with hypotheticals that'll never happen: Jerry's reaction to Joe's millionaire voice ("And where did you get that phony accent from? Nobody talks like that!"). It's actually Tony Curtis impersonating Cary Grant, who would of course become one of Hollywood's biggest stars a decade after the film's 1929 setting. | |

| Some Like It Hot / int_40ce0222 | comment |
Different for Girls: Lampshaded as Jerry tries to figure out how to walk in heels, just as Sugar walks by them with a... memorable demonstration. Many years later, a movie reviewer asked Tony Curtis why his "Josephine" was so much more feminine than Jack Lemmon's "Daphne". A laughing Curtis explained that he was so scared to be playing a woman (or a man pretending to be one) that his tightly wound body language could be read as demure and shy, traditionally feminine traits, whereas Lemmon, who was completely unbothered, and "ran out of his dressing room screaming like the Queen of the May," kept much more of his masculine body language. | |

Homoerotic Subtext | |
| Some Like It Hot / int_6056f853 | comment |
Homoerotic Subtext: So very much, particularly for 1959. At one point Jerry-as-Daphne seems to be developing genuine romantic feelings for Osgood, much to Joe's consternation (and we later find out that Osgood is completely unfazed by Jerry's real gender). Also, Sugar doesn't seem to initially mind getting a full-on kiss from Josephine. On a side note, Joe and Jerry are Heterosexual Life-Partners, Joe is very insistent that they do everything together and that what's Jerry's is his and while Jerry vocally objects, he goes along with it anyway. Though the last case may be more akin to them being like brothers, with Jerry being the little brother who gets bullied into doing things he doesn't want to. | |

Gilligan Cut: Joe promises Jerry that investing their overcoats with Sam the bookie to bet on a greyhound is a sure thing, and since it pays 10 to 1, they'll have twenty coats after the race. Cue them staggering down the street to the unemployment offices in freezing wind. | |

More Experienced Chases the Innocent: Feigned. Joe, in the guise of a millionaire, insists that he never felt any romantic or sexual desires after the death of his Lost Lenore, and Sugar, feeling herself as the more experienced one, decides to cure him with her kisses. In truth, however, Joe is as experienced as her. | |

Witless Protection Program: Variation: Jerry and Joe don't go to the police to get protection for their witnessing of the gangsters' massacre (and in that era, who can blame them), but they nevertheless go on the run and even adopt fake identities (and pretend they are women). The gangsters still are able to figure out where they went with the utmost precision and arrive to the hotel in the final act with full intent to silence them. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Some Like It Hot / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Joe's millionaire persona is an overt Cary Grant imitation; Curtis was a great admirer of Grant's work, and the two would appear together in Operation Petticoat later that same year. Several to classic gangster movies: At one point "Spats", played by George Raft, asks a mook who's playing with a coin, "Where did you pick up that cheap trick?". Raft had created the iconic image of the coin-flipping crook; he played one in Scarface and in If I Had a Million, both made in 1932. Later "Spats" threatens another mook with a halved grapefruit, a Shout-Out to a famous scene in The Public Enemy (1931), where James Cagney mashes a grapefruit in Mae Clarke's face. The leading mafia boss is nicknamed "Little Bonaparte", a nod to Edward G. Robinson's character from the gangster film Little Caesar (1931). | |

A-Cup Angst | |

A-Cup Angst: Played with; as per the 1920s setting, Sugar says that she's jealous of "Daphne" for being so flat-chested because clothes hang better on her. She means it as a compliment, but the bemused look on Jerry's face suggests he's a little insulted on Daphne's behalf. | |

Larynx Dissonance: Jack Lemmon had a fairly high voice already, and was able to do a decent tongue-in-cheek female voice while not having to adjust his natural voice very much. Tony Curtis on the other hand had to rely on a professional voice actor (Paul Frees) to dub his female voice. | |
