11. Bringing Up Baby (1938) - Hepburn & Grant are great. Fun watching this AFTER What's Up, Doc, which borrowed many elements (buttoned-up scientist engaged to the wrong woman seeks funding; freewheeling gal rips his jacket). The prison scene is a pretty big payoff but not as good as WUD. Grade: A-

12. Some Like It Hot (1959) - Very funny, lots of great scenes, very farce-y. Less gay panic than you'd expect from a straight-man-in-drag farce from the 50s! Marilyn Monroe is so great in this, and it goes without saying, but she's eye-poppingly gorgeous in it. Grade: A
