Description

Two musicians, Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon), are thrown out of work when the speakeasy they performed in-owned by mob boss Spats Columbo (George Raft)-is raided by Prohibition agent Mulligan (Pat O'Brien) and closed. Finally, after three long weeks of unemployment, Joe and Jerry get a gig in Urbana. But first they must get their car out of hock...at the garage chosen by the mob for the St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Hiding behind their car, Joe and Jerry witness the whole thing. Targeted for extinction, Joe and Jerry never show their faces again. There is an opening for a saxophonist and a bass player in an orchestra managed by one Sweet Sue (Joan Shawlee)...an all-woman orchestra. They get the job! On the way to Florida, they meet Sweet Sue's lead singer, Sugar Kane (Marilyn Monroe.

    Why is this only available for rent? I absolutely hate Apple when they do that: This is a wonderful classic, so I'd change the rating to 5 stars when it becomes available for purchase.
  • Great movie, make it available to buy instead of rent!

    This is perhaps the funniest comedy ever made, please make this available for purchase MGM! I check this and many other favorite MGM movies frequently, I’m not sure why this studio puts so many classics up for rental only, which is unusual for any other studio. Absolutely classic and hysterically funny movie with unbelievable casting, writing, and direction. Please take our money for this any many other MGM classics!
  • Why can’t we buy this classic piece of comedy?
