(1933)
Cast: Jean Harlow,
Marie Dressler, John Barrymore
Social butterfly Mrs. Oliver Jordan
arranges a dinner party that will benefit
the business of her husband. Among the
invited are a crooked executive, who
is in the process of ruining Jordan; his
wife, who is carrying on an affair with
a doctor; a fading matinee idol, who
has squandered his fortune on liquor
and is romantically involved with the
Jordan daughter; and a venerable stage
actress, who since losing all her money
has become a “professional guest.”
Nothing goes as planned, due to various
suicides, double-crosses, compromises,
fatal illness, and servant problems. But
dinner is served precisely at eight. The
script by Herman Mankiewicz, Frances
Marion, and Donald Ogden Stewart is
a virtual enclyopedia of witty lines and
scenes, right down to the unforgettable
closing gag.

product in various cities, ending with

Cast: Jack Lemmon,
Shirley MacLaine, Fred MacMurray
Widely regarded as a comedy in 1960,
The Apartment seems more melancholy
with each passing year. Jack Lemmon
plays C.C. Baxter, a go-getting office
worker who loans his tiny apartment
to his philandering superiors for their
romantic trysts. He runs into trouble
when he finds himself sharing a
girlfriend (Shirley MacLaine) with
his callous boss (Fred MacMurray).
Director, Billy Wilder was intrigued
about what sort of person would
willingly vacate his residence to allow
virtual strangers a playing field for
hanky panky.
