A Brilliant Conflict
KnotStronger
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

I'd heard some vague references to this movie back before I watched it and even heard the final line uttered in a certain 1996 alien invasion film. I'm not big on black-and-white films that are pre-1980s but this is one of the exceptions. If it wasn't for transvestites, we probably wouldn't have movies like this one or even Mrs. Doubtfire, or even the Monty Python TV show. If you wanted to see an older precursor to Mrs. Doubtfire, put this on your to-do list!

Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe completes the saying ' Three's Company ' and the results are bombastic. The gents, cross dressing by accident to hide from the mob ends up with a group of showgirls and both have fallen to the charms of the kittenish Marilyn Monroe. Who gets there first and win her heart, and how they managed to disguise it and to be exposed in the end becomes double riotous in each frame of this wonderful, fun-oriented , classic of a film. Proud owner here of a VHS copy.

When it comes to Hollywood movies about male sexual orientation and (cringe) cross-dressing - I'm sure glad to say that 1959's "Some Like It Hot" wasn't one where the men "crossing over" ever believed themselves to be really women trapped inside a man's body.(Phew! That was a close call!)And when it came to all of this deliberate gender deception with musicians, Joe and Jerry - I thought that Jack Lemmon (with hilarious confidence) clearly understood his "Daphne" character so much more completely than did Tony Curtis with his "Josephine".Of course - Having the voluptuous Marilyn Monroe (as Sugar Cane Kowalczyk) in this picture certainly did help to keep the charge of testosterone always crackling sharply just like a bolt of flash-lightning that never fails to strike in precisely the same place twice.Anyway - I'd say that this film's humorous ending between Daphne (Lemmon) and Osgood Fielding III (Brown) was a priceless touch of well-timed genius (thanks to director, Billy Wilder).

A couple of days ago I saw this movie for the very first time. It was an extra credit film for my Film History class that I am taking currently. I have seen many black and white films before but nothing compared to this one. From the first scene to the end credits my mind was on a complete roller coaster ride. I was very impressed with the main characters and how the actor/actresses playing them held their own throughout the entire film.The way the two main actors portrayed the two women throughout the entire was really impressive. This is a film I would recommend because it combines humor,suspense, romance, and violence in a unique way that really captures the time period it was filmed in. I can clearly say that this film for me was really enjoyable and nothing like I expected it to be. I hope it is enjoyable for others as much as it was enjoyable for me!!!
