Hello again,
So, after going to a Marylin Monroe exhibition and cinema screening of Some Like it Hot at the Little Theatre in Bath, I have completely fallen in love with this film! I found it absolutely hilarious and am now thinking that it would be a perfect focus film for my project.
... As for the project title... I'm still working on it! But I'd quite like to look at gender- perhaps tying in another favourite of mine: The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I'd also quite like to watch Ed Wood.
I have also considered looking at the controversy caused by the release of Some Like it Hot in 1959 as at the showing of the film today, a man gave some background information on it and I learned that The Catholic Legion of Decency "found cross-dressing to be sinful and rated it C for condemned." which I thought was really interesting.
Anyways, it's just an idea and I shall keep updating!
xx
