Winner of five 1960 Academy Awards including Best Picture, The Apartment is legendary writer/director Billy Wilder at his scathing, satirical best, and one of the finest comedies Hollywood has turned out. C.C.
"Bud" Baxter (Jack Lemmon) knows the way to success in business... it's through the door of his apartment! By providing a perfect hideaway for philandering bosses, the ambitious young employee reaps a series of underserved promotions. But when Bud lends the key to big boss J.D. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray), he's not only advances his career, but his own love life as well. For Sheldrake's mistress is the lovely Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine), elevator girl and angel of Bud's drams. Convinced that he is the only man for Fran, Bud must make the most important executive decision of his career: lose the girl ... or his job.

Sorry about the cliched Title. It's true though. Jack Lemmons performance is outstanding how about this for a line
"I used to live like Robinson and Crusoe, shipwrecked among 8 million people but one day I saw a footprint in the sand and there you were"
Doesn't get quite the required reaction from Shirley MacLaine's character who seems to be a bit of a dullard hence 4 stars.
