Popcorn Culture - Throwback: Some Like It Hot

Described by some critics as 'near perfection', Some Like It Hot has a lot going for it - it's directed, produced and co-written by Billy Wilder, it has both Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis - and of course, it has a sparkling Marilyn Monroe performance. Ahead of reviewing Blonde, we look back to a movie that's often been regarded as one of Monroe's bests, and discuss what it's like watching it 63 years on.
