Some Like It Hot is a comedy starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis.
I like this film because it is very funny, especially at the end when Jack Lemmon attempts to pass as a woman and is engaged. He says to his fiancé "I'm a man!" and he says back, "nobody's perfect"
Out of all the movies I've watched, that scene is my favourite.
Jack Lemmon, who portrays Jerry, and Tony Curtis, who plays saxophone player Joe, are on the run from a gang after they witness a mafia murder. They need to escape Chicago, but how?

Singing in the Rain
SECRETS
To spray so much water, high pressure was needed and when people got home from work, there was a massive pressure loss.
Gene Kelly had a dangerously high fever and between shots, the film crew would try to dry his suit to prevent him from catching pneumonia.
The sequence that Kelly used has also been used in many other films such as in 'in Shanghai Knights'.
The cameraman had to backlight the in order to make it show up.
Gene Kelly was always a second or two late although he had had many rehearsals.
So Kelly could see where he was supposed to splash, the filmakers dug into the cement and then filled them with water.
