About this product

Product Information

Billy Wilder's THE APARTMENT blends his customary harsh cynicism with a humane streak that appears only fleetingly in his films. It stars Jack Lemmon as C.C. Baxter, an office clerk who curries favor with the executives in his office by giving them the key to his small apartment for the odd afternoon dalliance. Among them his is his callous boss, J.D. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray), who Baxter eventually learns is using his place to sleep with Miss Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine), the sweet elevator operator the clerk has loved from afar. When Sheldrake coldly dumps the vulnerable young woman, she tries to commit suicide, but is saved by the intervention of Baxter. As the clerk lovingly nurses the young woman back to health he begins to realize, with the help of epigrammatic neighbor Dr. Dreyfuss (Jack Kruschen), exactly how much of a fool he has been. Wilder brilliant depiction of the average American office as a place of brutality, coldness, and alienation conjure up Kafka and Marx. The director seduces the audience into what appears to be an unusually frank sex comedy, but turns the tables in displaying the consequences of the executive's cold indifference. Lemmon and MacLaine both give career performances and MacMurray is memorable as the blandly smiling snake.

    This Apartment is a Real Party Pad

    We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves watching "The Apartment" the other evening. It played beautifully and the disc boasts three special features (not bad for an MGM DVD, they hardly ever have bonus features). Anyway, there are two documentaries, one focusing on the making of The Apartment, the other focusing on Jack Lemmon's brilliant career. Also featured is a commentary track which I unfortunately haven't played yet, but I'm sure it's awesome. Some are, some aren't, but since it's a commentary to a film as great as this one, I'm sure of its quality. This is a very engaging, entertaining film I'd highly recommend to whomever has ears to hear and eyes to read. Five stars.

    Shut up and deal

    Insurance worker C.C. Baxter lends his Upper West Side apartment to company bosses to use for extramarital affairs. When his manager Mr. Sheldrake begins using Baxter's apartment in exchange for promoting him, Baxter is disappointed to learn that Sheldrake's mistress is Fran Kubelik, the elevator girl at work whom Baxter is interested in himself. Soon Baxter must decide between the girl he loves and the advancement of his career.

    TOPS!

    Truly fine production. Acting is superb; ditto writing, direction, set design, photography . . . Tops my list of favorites.

    Great movie!

    Great movie. Dark comedy. Funny, but not like Lemmon’s Odd Couple or Out-of-Towners. The dad in “My 3 Sons” is the evil guy in this one.
