Joe is a jazz saxophone player and an irresponsible, impulsive ladies’ man in Prohibition-era Chicago in February 1929; his anxious buddy Jerry is a jazz double bass player. They work in a speakeasy run by “Spats” Colombo, a gangster. The cops raid the joint after being tipped off by informant “Toothpick” Charlie. Joe and Jerry flee, but later watch Spats and his henchmen gun down “Toothpick” and his gang in retaliation (inspired by the real-life Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre[6]). As they escape, Spats and his gang notice them. Joe and Jerry, broke, terrified, and desperate to get out of town, disguise themselves as women called Josephine and Daphne in order to join Sweet Sue and her Society Syncopators, an all-female band on their way to Miami by train. Joe and Jerry make friends with Sugar Kane, the band’s singer and ukulele player, on the train.Editor’s Picks

Once in Miami, Joe woos Sugar by disguising himself as billionaire Junior, the heir to Shell Oil, and pretending to be uninterested in her. Osgood Fielding III, a much-married, aging mama’s-boy, doggedly pursues “Daphne,” whose refusals only increase his appetite. On his yacht, New Caledonia, he brings “her” to a champagne dinner. Joe persuades Jerry to keep Osgood occupied on land so that “Junior” can transport Sugar to Osgood’s yacht and claim it as his own. “Junior” informs Sugar on the yacht that psychological trauma has rendered him impotent and frigid, but that he would marry anyone who could heal him. Sugar makes several attempts to excite him, with varying degrees of success. Meanwhile, “Daphne” and Osgood dance the tango (“La Cumparsita”) until the sun comes up. When Joe and Jerry return to the hotel, Jerry reveals that Osgood has proposed marriage to “Daphne,” and that he has accepted, expecting an instant divorce and a large cash settlement if his ruse is discovered. Jerry is persuaded by Joe that he cannot marry Osgood. Also, you will find out which character are you in this Some Like It Hot quiz.About the quiz
