An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" (8x10) Movie Still (Learn More) Some Like It Hot, the classic 1959 Billy Wilder (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic musical cross-dressing drag crime comedy ("Hot!!!"; about two out of work musicians who happen to witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago, and they need to leave town in a hurry, but the only jobs they can get is with an all-girl band, and they dress in drag, and one of the band members is Marilyn Monroe!) starring Marilyn Monroe ("and her bosom companions"), Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), George Raft, Pat O'Brien, and Joe E. Brown (the great star of 1920s and 1930s slapstick comedy, who practically steals this movie with a wonderful comic performance and an unforgettable final line!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the still shows a great candid image of Jack Lemmon in drag and director Billy Wilder next to two visitors to the set (if anyone knows who they are, please e-mail us and we will post it here)! Note that this still was consigned to us directly by the person who purchased it (along with 13 others) from the auction of the Billy Wilder Estate, and was Wilder's personal example of the still. Condition: good to very good. Note that this is one of 14 stills that were purchased at the Billy Wilder Estate auction, and all 14 have various degrees of darkening around the edges, which can be clearly seen in our super-sized image (we imagine it has something to do with how they were stored). Other than the darkening, the still is in pretty nice condition and is not fragile. Fortunately, the darkening mostly is in the blank borders, so if the still is framed, it will not show at all.
