Movie Night!


Tonight I watched The Apartment, starring Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine, and Fred MacMurray. The movie is about a clerk, Bud Baxter,who works for an insurance company in New York.  He lets men in the company use his apartment to have affairs. He is persuaded to do this by the higher ups in the company whom promise him it will help him move up in the company. Baxter has a crush on a girl, who heart belongs to another, and there is a twist ending...

I had wanted to see this movie for a while. When John and I went to New York over Christmas, we saw a Broadway play called Promises, Promises. The play was based on this movie The Apartment. I thought it was pretty good, it was just about the same as the play, so I wasn't surprised at the ending. The only real difference was that the movie provided no singing and dancing.
