Quickie: THE APARTMENT (1960)
The Apartment (1960)–****
Quickie Review
In order to become more than a just another number in his insurance company, C.C. Baxter loans out his apartment for executive flings. When he falls for Fran the elevator girl, it’s the apartment arrangement that stands in the way of his own love life. Funny and touching, this classic romance starts with huge laughs, serves up a poignant drama halfway, and has it all by the end. Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine are fabulous as the unrequited lovers, but Fred MacMurray steals the picture as Fran’s sleazy executive lover. Oscars for Best Picture and Director, Billy Wilder.
