"The Apartment"

From 1960, the story of a young New York insurance company employee, who is trying to get ahead by “loaning” his apartment to other executives. His life becomes complicated with unintended consequences when he falls in love with the office-building elevator operator. Directed by the legendary Billy Wilder, this great classic stars Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine in one of their best roles. It also features great supporting actors including Fred MacMurray, Ray Walston and Jack Kruschen. The movie is a beautiful and funny love story but also a pointed commentary on office politics, morality and how certain men treat women, circa 1960. The Broadway play “Promises, Promises” is the musical version of this wonderful film.
