James Purefoy and Gemma arterton add comedy to the making of an iconic film
NEW COMEDY
Urban Myths
Thursday, Sky Arts HD, 9pm
Some Like It Hot is one of the best-loved comedy movies of all time with its story of two 1920s musicians, played by Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis, evading gangsters by dressing as women and joining an all-female jazz band.
But the shooting of the 1959 film was plagued by difficulty, due to the fact that Marilyn Monroe, who played glamorous singer and ukulele player Sugar Kane, struggled to get her lines right.
The challenges faced by the film’s director and writer Billy Wilder are brought to life in the opening episode of Sky Arts’ Urban Myths comedy strand, which returns this week to give a ‘true-ish’ take on legendary moments from the worlds of film, music, art and literature.
