For those of you who have no clue what this is, this is the Best Picture winner of 1960.
Alright, now I watched this movie on the advice of my brother, who is a Grade A movie buff, while I would consider myself a solid Grade B. I wasn't expecting much, of course, but watched it anyways on the advice and also b/c it won Best Picture, even though it was 1960.
To be honest, I didn't expect such controversial topics in the movies, considering the time era! For starters, Jack Lemmon's apartment isserving as a high-demand love shack for all of the higher-ups he works for in his company who are cheating on their wives. Throw in a drug overdose by Shirley MacLaine (who, BTW, was borderline "hot" in this movie - hard to believe, and you have the solid makings of a PG-13 movie nowadays.
Anyways, it was a good film and, to be honest, I was pleased it wasn't a musical or anything like Mary Poppins. In fact, it was far from it.
