Tony Curtis & Jack Lemmon on the set of Some Like It Hot (1959, dir. Billy Wilder) (via)
“We hung out a lot. After we made Some Like It Hot, we’d meet at parties, with movie people, dinner and dancing. And I’d always walk up to Jack’s table, tap him on the shoulder, and say, ‘Would you like to dance?’ And he’d get up and we’d waltz through the dance floor. It was too good.”
-Tony Curtis, excerpted from Dallas News interview, July 2002
