I used to watch Some Like It Hot with my dad and it was one of those things that you really thought only you and your dad knew about until, like, college.  And then you were all uppity and snobby about it to anyone that mentioned it like I knew that movie from the jump, son. Every time I see a still from this movie I think of my dad and I like it.  Also, I can remember a palpable, strong yearning to be Marilyn.  At the end, on the yacht - he’s wrapped around her fucking finger.  I’m still learning how to do that.

    Great story, and great picture. The picture is actually a little startling because the movie is in black-and-white, so...
