Oh yeah...I've recently discovered Billy Wilder movies. The Apartment and Double Indemnity are both radtastic. You go watch them now.

double indemnity is one of my all time favorites!

It was so flipping good. Both flicks forever changed my impression of Fred MacMurray.

He's prolific as hell. (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000697/) Wrote a number of decent Monroe flicks. You've seen Some Like It Hot, right?

erm...not yet. It's actually next on the list, honest!

Oh, it's fabulous! The extras are really interesting, too (old Tony Curtis = pure terror). I loved The Apartment but have yet to see Double Indemnity. I will add it to my queue post haste.

I think we took no less than 3 smoke brakes during said movie. I think Fred MacMurray went through at least two packs. Unfiltered even! Gah!

Yes! The Apartment is one of my favorite movies. I love Shirley MacLaine... She's also great in Irma La Douce, another Wilder film. And then there's Sunset Blvd... I have to see Double Indemnity.
