## Description

In 1960, following on from the success of their collaboration on Some Like it Hot, director Billy Wilder (Ace in the Hole, Sunset Boulevard) reteamed with actor Jack Lemmon (The Odd Couple, Glengarry Glen Ross) for what many consider the pinnacle of their respective careers: The Apartment. C.C. ''Bud'' Baxter (Lemmon) is a lowly Manhattan office drone with a lucrative sideline in renting out his apartment to adulterous company bosses and their mistresses. When Bud enters into a similar arrangement the firm's personnel director, J.D. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray, Double Indemnity), his career prospects begin to look up... and up. But when he discovers that Sheldrake's mistress is Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine, Irma la Douce), the girl of his dreams, he finds himself forced to choose between his career and the woman he loves... Winner of five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, The Apartment features a wealth of Hollywood's finest talent on both sides of the camera at the top of their game.

    He's so noble that I can't help falling in love with him myself
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2017*

I rented this three days ago and watched it four times in the 48 hours I had available. Every single time, I appreciated the move more. I'm planning to rent it again tonight and watch it with my husband. I think this is one of the most poetic romantic comedies I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Billy Wilder's writing and direction are beyond words (at least my words).  He has such attention to detail. (small spoiler alert - all through the film there are subtle previews for big plot points. One example is the fact that it is necessary to use matches to light the stove. We experience Mr. Baxter lighting the match for the stove several times before the scene with the gas smell, and so we've been primed to get the twist of plot when it happens. It's the same with the executive washroom key and several other things as well.)  Jack Lemmon is stellar as C.C. Baxter. He's so noble that I can't help falling in love with him myself. Letting the people in the office and the apartment complex think bad things about him so they will think not-quite-so-bad things about her is just darling. Fred MacMurray, of course, nails his role. There's no surprise there. He can play anything from an insurance salesman killing someone on practically a whim to an absent minded professor, and he IS the nasty, jerk-wad, two-timing, philandering boss creapo to a T. Shirley MacLaine was beyond charming. All the side characters were played beautifully as well. My only regret is that I'm almost fifty years old and I didn't watch this film until this week.

    Brief moments, little things
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2019*

The acting is great, including that of the supporting cast. Exaggerated at times, but after all, it’s satire. The witty screenplay by Billy Wilder and I. A. L. Diamond interweaves happiness, sadness, and the brief moments & little things that say a lot about our lives. For example, Miss Kubelik’s reference at a Chinese restaurant to “the same sauce, sweet and sour” is her way of commenting on the “sweet and sour” relationship she’s been in, and the broken mirror in her compact reflects how she feels. Recurring elements such as a record album by the piano player at the restaurant serve as signposts for viewers and links among the characters.Some motifs occur many times, like the keys to the apartment and the executive washroom, which move among the employees of Consolidated Life. Others show up just twice, such as a tennis racket used as a spaghetti strainer, or the idea of sending someone a fruitcake every Christmas. Some references mark the times, such as TV ads for cigarettes, The Untouchables on Thursday evening, and the original Broadway production of The Music Man.Wilder said this film was inspired by a scene in the English movie Brief Encounter (1946), in which a man takes the woman he’s seeing to the apartment of a friend. The friend returns early, and the woman goes out the back way. The return of the key in that film evolved into all the business about keys in The Apartment.

    Superb Blu-ray edition
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2019*

The word "spiffy" must've been created to describe this Arrow Blu-ray edition of THE APARTMENT, because that's exactly what it is.As a huge movie fan, I'm embarrassed that I'd only seen the film one time.  Until yesterday, when I finally opened this package and watched it straight through.The movie itself is stunning -- two hours that seems more like one.  Poignant, funny, touching.  And the Blu-ray is also stunning -- crisp black-and-white transfer, crystal clear sound.  Lots of great bonus features on the disc.And the packaging -- wow.  Lovely artwork, dynamite (hardcover!) book.What does it say when a movie from 1960 is the best movie I've seen this year, in 2019?  (and I've seen many)  THE APARTMENT is a movie that actually deserved to win the Best Picture Oscar.
