Billy Wilder if one of my favorite directors, I have seen almost all his films. This by far is my fav (except for Stalag17 of course).

I spent weeks trying to make cigarrette holders with paperchips after I saw it for the first time.

A must see!

I love old movies!!! If I am chanel surfing and I pass a BW movie I have to stop. BW's are the movies I can watch no matter how far into it is when I find it (that just sounds confusing!) Love em.....

Oh I watched Breakfast at Tiffany's a couple nights ago. Oh and Rear view window with Grace Kelly... she's dreamy....

I Love old movies and am also an avid TCM watcher. Some of my favorites are:
Now Voyager/Bette Davis
They Drive By Night/George Raft
Torrid Zone/James Cagney-Ann Sheridan
The Maltese Falcon/Bogart

Really just too many to even list. I also collect silents and have many feature films of the 1920's.

Since I was a little girl, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) with Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe is one of my all-time favorite movies.

It Happened One Night (1934) with Clark Gable & Claudette Colbert is one of my all-time favorite romantic comedies.

Don't like Marilyn Monroe at all. I think she sucked as an actress. Just my .02.

Well, I always wanted to be Jane Russell in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes

I didn't like Monroe's Bus Stop (her accent is sooo annoying to me in that film) or a few others; but I don't think she was that bad in some of her films... I do understand, though, how some people think of her as more of an iconic figure than an actress :-)

I love Billy Wilder with a mad passion. He's the Grand Master, whose touch is the coup de gras, the magnificent, writer of writers and director of directors, the talent of talents, the film genious of geniouses. My God, the man far exceeded his craft.

But I hate Some Like It Hot like no one's business.

And the reason is Marilyn Monroe. I don't care if anyone takes issue with this because we are all entitled to our likes and dislikes. I wouldn't put you down anymore for liking her than you would put me down for disliking so intensely. We're all different and we're all entitled. My view of Some Like it Hot is just my .02 alone and remember, it won't really matter in the long run.

But I could rattle off Billy Wilder movies that I think are far more interesting.
Again, just my.02
