| This reminds me of something Jack Lemmon said in an interview on the old CNN Larry King show. King asked him why Billy Wilder didn't direct him and Walter Matthau in The Odd Couple and Lemmon replied, "Oh, Billy would never adapt a play. He only wanted to direct his own original screenplays." Billy Wilder directed the following: Stalag 17 Sabrina The Seven Year Itch Witness for the Prosecution One, Two, Three Irma la Douce Avanti! The Front Page ... all based on plays! Lemmon was in the last three of them! I wonder how much we read and hear is just not true. It's a depressing amount, even outside of politicians. |
