Directed by Billy Wilder | 1960
With Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine, Fred MacMurray
"Wilder, a bilious and mercurial wit, here becomes a wide-screen master of time."
—Richard Brody, The New Yorker
Billy Wilder’s Oscar-winning New York classic strikes an exquisite balance between pathos and comedy in its portrait of a junior insurance exec (Lemmon) working his way up the corporate ladder, while trying to rescue the office elevator girl (MacLaine) from her lovesick malaise. Packed with razor-sharp verbal jabs (“That's the way it crumbles…cookie-wise”), The Apartment is an alternately sweet and sour evocation of love and loneliness in the big city.
