Some Like It Hot (1959)

A:      Sugar Kane Kowalczyk (Marilyn Monroe)
B:      Jerry (Jack Lemmon)
C:      Joe (Tony Curtis)
 

B:       Terribly sorry.
A:       It's ok.  I was scared it was Sweet Sue.  You won't tell anybody, will you?  
C:       Tell what? 
A:       Well, if they catch me once more, they're gonna kick me out of the band. [takes a swig from her flask] You're the replacements for the bass and sax?   
B:       That's us.  And I'm Daphne.  This is, uh, Joe...sephine.
A:       Come in, come in.  I'm Sugar Kane.
C:       Sugar Kane?
A:       Yeah.  I changed it.  It used to be Sugar Kowalczyk.
B:       Polish?
A:       Yes.  I come from this musical family.  My mother's a piano teacher.  And my father was a conductor. 
C:       Where did he conduct?
A:       On the Baltimore and Ohio.
B:       Oh. 
[Joe and Jerry don't quite know what to say.]
A:       I play the ukulele, and I sing, too.
B:       Sings, too.  Ha ha ha!  
A:       Well, I don't have much of a voice, but then this isn't much of a band, either.  I'm only with them because I'm running away.   
C:       Running away from what?   
A:       Oh, don't get me started on that.  [pours some bourbon on a disposable cup] Here.  You want some?  It's bourbon.  
B:       I'll take a rain check.  Ha ha ha ha ha ha! 
A:       I don't want you to think I'm a drinker.  I can stop any time I want to, only I don't want to, especially when I'm blue.  
C:       We understand.
A:       All the girls drink.  It's just that I'm the one that gets caught.  Story of my life.  I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop.
