As the aptly named Sugar Kane, Marilyn Monroe is at her bubble-headed, sexy best, her voluptuous sensuality providing a perfect foil for Lemmon and Curtis. One of Wilder's best films, Some Like It Hot retains its inter-generational appeal, proving that under the frothy icing of 1950s sex comedies lurked some very dense cake.[1] What was once a guilty pleasure is now just a terrible, terrible movie, a real disaster of a film full of lame skiing footage, atrocious attempts at bawdy humor, and half-assed sex scenes. The movie approximates a kid's-gotta-make-it story, with a midwestern kid trekking to Squaw Valley for a skiing competition, facing off against the big bad locals while getting his skis waxed, if you catch my drift.[2] This is also the first Marilyn Monroe film that I've seen and she really has incredible sex appeal.

Navarro says "Broken," starring bisexual actress Sasha Grey , is "an erotic tale of sexual duality" that will push the boundaries of adult movies. Ironically, most of Navarro's fan base consists of teens, who'll have to pretend they're 21 or older to see the XXX sizzler, being released by Tera Pat rick 's company, Teravision.[4] Anna can't decide between the sexy married guy, or her straightforward, no-sparks standby, Conor, who can't get over the fact that he can't have her. And Mary, who's found an entire network of loving, supportive men, just needs to find one who's straight.[5] The kids are at an ideal age—old enough to master the steps but too young to have things complicated by any sort of sexual tension, and the program itself enriches their lives in so many ways. We observe firsthand as awkward and sometimes difficult children transform into ladies and gentlemen.[6]

Not that the giant swastika was a turnon, but he was SO amazingly hot and sexy in that movie I could watch it over and over. And he's rarely been sexy before or after.[7] Teenage sex and parental morals clash in this 1950s teen film about an upper-middle class girl and a working class boy who go too far! Two Los Angeles teenage boys crash a house party where all the cats and kittens are jitterbug dancing.[8] For my male friends, sex was in the details. One guy friend told me about some specific scenes that made him hot.[9]

Valkyrie
Valkyrie is directed by Bryan Singer (who has spent the last decade directing films about men, both of the X and the Super variety), and it has Tom playing Nazi Col. Claus von Stauffenberg—odd for a man in the process of repairing his public image.[1] Valkyrie is designed for simplicity and ease of use, whilst allowing access to the full range of Valgrind command-line options. [2] Valkyrie is rated on her performance, and failure to comply with Odin's requests will lower the rewards you receive between chapters. [3]

Valkyrie is the most expensive film made for distribution by MGM under� Sloan?s watch. The studio will now spend about $60 million to market the movie ?[4] Valkyrie is a retelling of this little known dramatic event in World War II history that shows us first hand how von Stauffenberg nearly succeeded in bringing down both Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany. [5] Valkyrie is an action packed movie with great acting, an easy to follow plot and fantastic cinematography. As they say, never a dull moment.[6]

Cruise hate or not, this has (or had) the potential to be a really good film. Bryan Singer's done good work like the Usual Suspects and the first to X-Men movies, you like half the good British actors in the world in this, and the story is a good one.[17]

Tom Cruise?s World War II thriller Valkyrie has suffered yet another in a long line of setbacks while filming in Germany. Apparently, a batch of nighttime footage shot a couple weeks ago has been deemed unusable after the negatives were developed in the wrong chemicals.[29] Tom Cruises’ career taking a downward spiral is the equilavent of one shooting themself in the foot. His association with his cult, and his outrageous beliefs and actions are of his own making.[30] Tom Cruise stars in the suspense film, VALKYRIE, based on the true story of Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg (CRUISE) and the daring and ingenious plot to eliminate one of the most evil tyrants the world has ever known. A proud military man, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg is a loyal officer who serves his country all the while hoping that someone will find a way to stop Hitler before Europe and Germany are destroyed.[31]

Tom Cruise's 'Valkyrie', a World War II thriller scheduled for a Christmas day opening, will be up against a box office challenge. The film starring Tom Cruise as Col. Claus von Stauffenberg, a would be Hitler assassin, is a risky film to make, due to its sensitive subject matter.
By donning a German army uniform, Cruise who is trying to rehabilitate his image, won't engender any warm feelings in the public. On the other hand, 'Valkyrie' is a serious, suspenseful film, so it may just help put Cruise On Top, once again.
However, on line mocking of early advertisements showing an eye-patched Cruise and Stauffenberg, have given the film more bad publicity than it deserves. But, Cruise,
46, is not discouraged and says he is familiar with bad publicity, having been dogged by rumours about his personal life and films like 1988's 'Rain Man' that seemed doomed before release.
His bout of bad publicity began with a fateful appearance on Oprah Winfrey's show in 2005, followed by an awkward interview with 'Today' show host Matt Lauer and Paramount Pictures severing a 14-year relationship with him, the following year. As Cruise says, 'As I've said, I want an adventurous life, and yet, I've gotten a little bit more adventure than I bargained for.'
But, having revisited Winfrey, earlier this year and having publicly patched thing up with Lauer, a rebound for Tom Cruise is definitely in the works. Only last week, he got a Golden Globe nomination for Ben Stiller's raunchy summer comedy 'Tropic Thunder', in which his hilarious performance as a dirty-dancing, foul-mouthed studio head won accolades.
As Cruise jokingly says, 'Go kill Hitler on Christmas!'
