Some Like it Hot was a classic 1950s comedy that still holds up today. The film boasts some impressive star power and a story that could have only come out of the Golden Age of Hollywood. The film stars Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon, and Tony Curtis in some of the best performances of their careers. The story manages to blend an intentionally ridiculous plot with some moments of romance, suspense, and a hefty dose of humor. For this reason, we say Some Like it Hot is still a must-watch in 2021.
