Welcome to The Chick-Lit (And Movies) Podcast 🎙️🍿, where we proudly lower our expectations for cinema so you don’t have to 🙃✨ Each month, we cover two films: one critically beloved 🏆 and one absolute disaster 🔥🗑️
This week, the Chicks 🐥 run (in heels) into Some Like It Hot (1959) 🎷💋 — the classic that asks: what if you witnessed a mob hit… and your solution was ✨drag and deception✨?
After accidentally seeing a mafia massacre 💀🔫, two broke musicians disguise themselves as women and join an all-girls band headed to Florida 🌴💄. What follows is pure chaos: identity crises 🎭, fake millionaire schemes 🚤💋, accidental engagements 💍, and a man who truly does not care about details 💅
Marilyn Monroe is effortlessly iconic 🥂💔, Tony Curtis is doing crimes in a Cary Grant accent 🎩😵💫, and Jack Lemmon commits so hard he nearly marries into money 💄✨
We’re talking horny jazz energy 🎷🔥, mafia men popping up like violent Where’s Waldo 🕵️♂️🔫, and a plot that fully abandons logic in favor of vibes
Plus: 💬 Life updates + main character moments 🎤 Tiny Rant Corner (celebrity apologies… WHY are they so long??) 💄 Our “Nobody’s Straight and Everyone’s Sweating” rating system
And of course…
“Well… nobody’s perfect.” 🎭
⚠️ Spoilers ahead — but it came out in 1959, so… that’s on you ⚠️
So grab your pearls 💎, your emergency disguise kit 👠, and maybe a backup identity 🪪✨ as we break down “Some Like It Hot” 🎬 _____________________________________________
