The Apartment (1960, b/w)

SKY ARTS, 10.00PM ★★★★★

One year after Some Like It Hot, Billy Wilder and star Jack Lemmon teamed up once again in this brilliant comedy, which is tinged with Wilder’s usual cynicism. Lemmon plays an office clerk who plans to advance his career by letting his colleagues take their mistresses to his apartment. Then one day his boss arrives with the woman (Shirley Maclaine) he has been admiring from afar.
