Winner of five 1960 Academy Awards including Best Picture, "The Apartment" is
legendary writer/director Billy Wilder at his scathing, satirical best, and one
of "the finest comedies Hollywood has turned out" (Newsweek).
C.C. "Bud" Baxter
(Jack Lemmon) knows the way to success in business...it’s through the door of
his apartment! By providing a perfect hideaway for philandering bosses, the
ambitious young employee reaps a series of undeserved promotions. But when Bud
lends the key to big boss J.D. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray), he not only advances
his career, but his own love life as well. For Sheldrake’s mistress is the
lovely Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine), elevator girl and angel of Bud’s dreams.
Convinced that he is the only man for Fran, Bud must make the most important
executive decision of his career: lose the girl...or his job.
