A man tries to rise in his company by letting its executives use his apartment for trysts, but complications and a romance of his own ensue.
One of Billy Wilder's best films and a classic: a brilliantly cynical comedy (if you want to call it that) and romance about two kindhearted losers amidst a bleak and immoral world, wonderfully played by MacLaine and Lemmon.
Halliwell**: "Overlong and patchy but agreeably mordant and cynical comedy with a sparkling view of city office life and some deftly handled individual sequences."
Maltin****: "Superb comedy-drama that manages to embrace both sentiment and cynicism."
