Movie Make-out

The reason I think I enjoy this article from Katey Rich over at Cinema Blend.com is because of her very last choice for the best movies you’ll ever experience during Christmas as an adult, and it’s Billy Wilder’s The Apartment:

The Apartment is all about extramarital affairs, drinking problems, suicide and unbearable urban loneliness, but it’s also one of Billy Wilder’s funniest, and best, movies. It’s Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine before they become “old coot” icons, Fred MacMurray at his most corporate evil, and great one-liners and running gags… comedy-wise, that is.

In other words, it’s a Christmas movie for those of us who enjoy a bit of cynicism with their heart-warming stories, and that’s perfectly okay with me.
