Some Like it Hot shows at MUMAA tonight.

The Museum of Art and Archaeology, 106 Pickard Hall on the University of Missouri campus, will screen the 1959 film “Some Like It Hot” at 7 tonight as part of its regular free film series.

Director Billy Wilder’s film centers on two musicians, Joe and Jerry (Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon), who witness a mob massacre. In an attempt to escape the gangsters responsible, they disguise themselves as women and join an all-female band on its way to Miami. The film’s outstanding cast also prominently features Marilyn Monroe. Log on to: maa.missouri.edu.
