Would it make me very uncultured if this was my favourite Wilder film? Just supposing, you know.

not any more uncultured than i, who doesn't think she's even seen any other of wilder's films......

Oh, you must see "Witness For The Prosecution" if you haven't yet, it's the only film I know that manages to fit in a dozen twists and turns without becoming ridiculous - or, in fact, anything short of mesmerising. "Sunset Boulevard" is stunning as well, and "One, Two, Three" is lovely and clever - another one that's adorable fun most of all (though not to say it's stupid - same sort of thing as "Some Like It Hot", really, including a man switching name and character without the girl noticing) is "Irma La Douce". Wilder's a genius (I'm reading a book of things he wrote as a journalist in Berlin in the twenties right now, I started the day you posted these stills, so I'd been thinking about him anyway already :D).

This is a great movie, I rewatched it not too long ago. It's sad that they don't make movies this funny anymore...
