SCOTLAND STILL LIKES IT HOT!

Published by

Marilyn Remembered’s own Lorraine Nicol recently attended a screening of the 1959 classic “Some Like It Hot” starring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon and directed by Billy Wilder.

The screening took place at the GFT (Glasgow Film Theatre) in Scotland, United Kingdom.  The venue holds just under 200 people and Lorraine was thrilled to see the films showing was a near sell out!

“I’ve been fortunate enough to see many Marilyn Monroe films on the big screen, including “Some Like It Hot” and what always astounds me is that even after all these years, these classic films can still draw in the big crowds.  There were people of all ages and generations filling the theatre with bellowing laughter and thunderous applause!  As nice as it is to watch these movies in the comfort of your own home, nothing beats seeing this classic comedy on the big screen with so many likeminded people having the time of their life!  Scotland clearly loves all things Marilyn!”
