Revealing documentary about the creation and shooting of the acclaimed comedy movie Some Like It Hot.

Stars Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis - and other members of the cast and crew, including producer Walter Mirisch - remember the making of writer-director Billy Wilder's classic film.

Using extraordinary behind-the-scenes colour footage and candid on-set photographs taken by stills photographer Richard Miller (also interviewed), the documentary provides a surprisingly intimate and revealing but nevertheless hilarious portrait of the making of one of Hollywood's best-loved and greatest films.
