Lui è un "piglione". Un che? C'è gente che piglia e gente che è presa. E anche sapendo di essere presi, non possono farci nulla.

absolute perfection. I was touched, heartbroken, inspired. the performances are perfect, as is the script and direction. the tenderness of jack lemmon's character and the rawness of his performance were moving. a masterpiece, simply put.

"I used to live like Robinson Crueso, I mean shipwrecked among eight million people, and then one day, I saw a footprint in the sand, and there you were." This and his tennis racket spaghetti noodle strainer were the best bits. 3 out of 5 stars.

A movie made expressly for "the little people." little people are so cute when they strain spaghetti through tennis rackets.

I love this movie in so many ways. The actors, the cynical view of sex and capitalism, the widescreen, the desks that go on forever, the damaged people just trying to a home in an apartment. Most of all I love script. Every action and moment in the second half of the movie is wonderfully set up.

C. C. Baxter was inspired by a minor character in Brief Encounter by David Lean, another one of my favourite movies!!

C.C. Baxter: Ya know, I used to live like Robinson Crusoe; I mean, shipwrecked among 8 million people. And then one day I saw a footprint in the sand, and there you were.

one of Wilder's best but it pissed me off today. if only it didn't have that happy ending that destroyed all the realism, meaning and melancholy, it would have been sublime. still great but so sad that the ending undermined its potential.

A highly enjoyable watch. I was a bit hesitant after finding Some Like It Hot to be quite a let-down. This movie came across as a real indication of the transition from early Hollywood to a newer realism. The issues are handled with class but reek of the darker undercurrent in modern society. Quite frankly it looked like a classic film but felt so modern in it's issues. Funny at times, and quite moving as well.

I did not expect it to be this dark. I did not expect it to be this enjoyable.

is the first classic black & white film i've ever seen that was shot on a wide-screen film ratio.

Wilder's romantic but corrosive view of the petty bourgeois. Dignity and reason are non existent when it comes to scale up high positions. But there will always be left a thorn inside the heart that compels you to start feeling like a human being all over again.
