First of all. People who buy classic marilyn monroe movies just because they've heard they are good are so lame. Some Like it Hot is a classic of our time yes but since when was marilyn ever suprisingly good? she's an amazing actress and always has been. The reason she was ever noticed in the first place was because she was an actress. People can be so dumb when it comes to movies. What about Gentlemen Prefer Blondes? or The Seven Year Itch? or Niagra?! when did Some Like it Hot all of a sudden become the movie to which all other marilyn monroe movies are compared? yes a great film, but dude, she's more than just a pretty face. people just love to assume that. a perfect example of our judgemental and close-minded society. just shoot me.
