Tony Curtis: Dead At 85


My favorite of his movies is, of course, “Some Like It Hot,” which managed to make even Marilyn Monroe watchable. (Thank you, Billy Wilder.)

One Comment to “Tony Curtis: Dead At 85”

  1. Not to turn this into an “oh-BITCH-uary,” but frankly, I can’t forgive the homophobic anti-BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN campaign that Tony Curtis launched, or certainly participated in quite vigorously.

    And I find SOME LIKE IT HOT insufferably sexist, but that’s a generation thing. I’ve only made it all the way through that movie once, and every time I try again, I end up turning it off within 15 minutes.

    Frankly, I think the only good thing that Tony Curtis ever did was help to give the world Jamie Lee Curtis.
