synopsis
Chicago, 1929. Two musicians on the run from the Mafia after witnessing a massacre join an all-female band in disguise – made up and dressed as women – whose star is a charming, slightly hapless singer…
Wilder manie l’art du faux semblant avec dextérité et surtout une délectation communicative : variation légère sur le travestissement, le jeu des apparences, et de loin sur l’homosexualité, "Some Like It Hot" est aussi une réflexion plus profonde sur le machisme et sur la sexualité, d’une totale modernité.
Hélène Lacolomberie, La Cinémathèque française
Effortlessly fluent, joyous and buoyant: a high-concept comedy that stays as high as a kite, while other comedies flag. ‘Nobody’s perfect’ is the last line. Wilder, Lemmon, Curtis and Monroe come pretty close.
The Guardian
Pictures like this, with a sense of humor that is as broad as it can be sophisticated, come along only infrequently.
