After witnessing a mob hit, two male musicians go on the run posing as women in an all-female band. Starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon, and Tony Curtis, and nominated for 6 Academy Awards, the film set a new standard for comedy. Produced without approval from the Motion Picture Production Code due to LGBTQ-related themes, legendary director Billy Wilder’s smash hit weakened the “Hays Code” and loosened their control over an ever-changing industry.
