  journalist Enzo Mauri, who introduces today's

  topic. of 1961, the film received ten nominations
• 1:42
  and won five awards, including best film, best
• 1:45
  director and best screenwriter. This despite
• 1:48
  the scandal due to the delicate topic touched,
• 1:51
  adultery. Written with four hands by the screenwriter
• 2:06
  Yael Diamond, the idea of ​​the apartment was
• 2:09
  born from the director's obstinacy to make a
• 2:11
  new film with Jack Lemmon. It all happened after
• 2:14
  the success of A Qualcuno Piace Caldo, which
• 2:16
  saw among the protagonists none other than Marilyn
• 2:19
  Monroe. It is to be asked why for the apartment
• 2:21
  Billy Wilder preferred the very good Shirley
• 2:24
  MacLaine, as a female protagonist, instead of
• 2:28
  Monroe. Perhaps because at the same time the
• 2:30
  blonde actress was engaged in the reenactments
• 2:32
  of Let's Make Love together with the The plot
• 2:35
  follows the story of Sissy Bud Baxter, the actor
• 2:38
  Jack Lemmon, a lonely insurance employee who
• 2:41
  tries to scale the corporate hierarchy, leaving
• 2:44
  his old colleagues the use of his apartment for
• 2:47
  extra -marital encounters. In the meantime, Bud
• 2:49
  falls in love with Fran Kubelik, the actress
• 2:51
  Shirley MacLaine, an elevator operator who discovers
• 2:54
  herself involved with the head of staff at the
• 2:57
  company, Jeff Sheldrake, the actor Fred McMurray.

• 3:24
  despite being nominated, none of the three protagonists,
• 3:26
  including Jack Krashen, in the role of Dr. David
• 3:29
  Dreyfuss, judged the precious statue. The apartment
• 3:33
  was the subject of some scenes and also of a
• 3:35
  curious incident that happened on set. The set
• 3:38
  designer, Alexander Trauner, used the forced
• 3:41
  perspective to create the office environment
• 3:43
  of a large insurance company. The set appeared
• 4:02
  like a very long room full of desk employees,
• 4:05
  however those in the background were smaller,
• 4:07
  occupied by lower actors and even by children.
• 4:11
  Baxter's apartment was set up so that it appeared
• 4:13
  smaller and cramped than the spacious ones that
• 4:16
  were usually present in the films of the time.
• 4:21
  He bought her some napkins. So it's worth redeeming
• 4:23
  yourself. You see, I lived like Robinson Crusoe.
• 4:29
  In short, like a shipwreck between 8 million
• 4:31
  people. Then one day I saw Norma on the sand
• 4:34
  and I found her. For the setting, objects from
• 4:39
  used shops and even some Billy Wilder furniture
• 4:43
  were used. In a scene, Sissy Baxter receives
• 4:44
  a punch from Carl Matuska, the actor Johnny Seven,
• 4:48
  brother -in -law of Frank Kubelik. Well, according
• 4:50
  to the script, the protagonist should have dodged
• 4:53
  it while he received it for real. That's why
• 4:55
  Billy Wilder decided that scene was good. Another
• 4:59
  scene, among the most remembered of the film,
• 5:01
  is the one in which Sissy Baxter spills spaghetti
• 5:03
  in her kitchen with a racket from tennis. The
• 5:07
  film gave inspiration for the 1968 Broadway musical
• 5:10
  Promises Promises. In 1994 the apartment was
• 5:15
  included in the National Film Registry of the
• 5:18
  United States Congress Library. The film has
• 5:21
  become a classic of American cinema. Its ability
• 5:24
  to mix humor, romanticism and drama makes it
• 5:27
  a work that continues to be appreciated and studied
• 5:29
  by cinema enthusiasts all over the world. Drew
