About the film
The movie for discussion is Some Like It Hot. After witnessing a Mafia murder, saxophone player Joe and his buddy, Jerry, improvise a quick plan to escape from Chicago with their lives. Disguising themselves as women, they join an all-female jazz band and hop a train bound for sunny Florida. While Joe pretends to be a millionaire to win the band's singer, Sugar, Jerry finds himself pursued by a real millionaire as things heat up and the mobsters close in
