"Marilyn
Monroe fans will find the two Criterion discs give the most of
Monroe." -Barbara Saltzman, The Los Angeles Times Jack Lemmon
and Tony Curtis star as Joe and Jerry, two musicans on the run from
the mob, who must dress up in drag and join an all-woman band. While
on tour, Joe/Josephine falls in love with band member Sugar Kane
(Marilyn Monroe). Both Criterion editions of this gender bending
comedy, directed by Billy Wilder, offer the original widescreen aspect
ratio, audio commentary about the movie's production and stars by film
historian Howard Suber, and the theatrical trailer. The CAV
edition also includes: - Home movies of Marilyn Monroe, her
then-husband Arthur Miller, Tony Curtis and his then-wife Janet Leigh
(with baby Jamie Lee!), and director Billy Wilder
- Production
