Director and star Kenneth Branagh brings another Shakespearean
adaptation to the screen. Hamlet (Branagh), Prince of Denmark, vows
revenge when informed by the ghost of his murdered father (Brian
Blessed) that the present king Claudius (Derek Jacobi) was
responsible. Spurning the romantic advances of his sweetheart
Ophelia (Kate Winslet), Hamlet attempts to open the eyes of his
mother Gertrude (Julie Christie), whom Claudius has now wed.
However, Hamlet's procrastination when it comes to killing Claudius
costs more lives.
C.C. 'Bud' Baxter (Jack Lemmon) knows the way to success in business... it's through the door of his apartment! By providing a perfect hideaway for philandering bosses, the ambitious young employee reaps a series of undeserved promotions.
But when Bud lends the key to Big Boss J.D. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray), he not only advances his career, but his own love life as well. For Sheldrake's mistress is the lovely Fran Kubelik (Shirley Mc Laine), elevator girl and angel of Bud's dreams.
Convinced that he is the only man for Fran, Bud must make the most executive decision of his career - lose the girl.....or his job.

When Chicago musicians Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon) accidentally witness a gangland shooting they quickly board a southbound train to Florida, disguised as Josephine and Daphne, the two newest and homeliest members of an all-girl jazz band.
Their cover is perfect… until a lovelorn singer (Marilyn Monroe) falls for "Josephine", an ancient playboy (Joe E. Brown) falls for "Daphne", and a mob boss (George Raft) refuses to fall for their hoax.
Billy Wilder directs this critically acclaimed classic comedy
starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis. In February
1929, unemployed musicians Joe (Curtis) and Jerry (Lemmon) go on
the run after witnessing the St Valentine's Day Massacre. Pursued
by gangsters led by the ruthless Spats Colombo (George Raft), the
duo are forced to disguise themselves as women and join Sweet Sue
(Joan Shawlee)'s all-girl band on the next train to Florida. Joe
falls for Sugar Kane (Monroe), the band's singer, while Jerry finds
himself pursued enthusiastically by millionaire Osgood Fielding III
(Joe E. Brown). Comic complications ensue. The film received a
Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Comedy) with Monroe and
Lemmon being awarded for their performances.
