PBS showing a movie about cross-dressers? I'm shocked!

(OK, it is one of the greatest comedies of all time....but still, you have to get shots in at PBS while you can....)

They showed it here in St. Louis, too. Very funny novie. Billy Wilder made some great flicks. (The movie he made with Jack Lemmon the next year, "The Apartment," is also excellent.)

Great supporting cast in this one: Joe E. Brown is hilarious, George Raft, Pat O' Brien. . . .

Trivia: Jerry Lewis was offered the part played by Jack Lemmon, but declined.

Trivia II: Cary Grant liked Tony Curtis's imitation of him as the millionaire. Grant and Curtis worked together on "Operation Petticoat" around the same time.

Trivia III: That "Florida" hotel was really the Hotel del Coronado in San Diego. When they're swimming in the ocean, you can see mountains in the background, which I don't think exist near Miami.

BTW, my mom remembered the actual St. Valentine's Day massacre. She was 13 years old at the time (Feb. 1929), and lived in Chicago not far from where it occurred.

I was quite entranced with this film when I saw it in the early 60's on TV.
