Jack Lemmon was great in it and Tony Curtis did a funny imitation of Cary Grant (Grant said it didn't sound like him). The hotel scenes were suppose to be of a hotel in Florida but actually it was the Hotel del Coronado in Coronado. Ca., where I live. I often walk past the hotel, which just completed a $400 million renovation, and the hotel looks mostly like it did when it was filmed. The dock where they take a motor boat to a yacht at sea is still there and the building is a restaurant on Glorietta Bay. During filming, Marylin Monroe stayed in one of several cabanas but those have since been torn down and replaced with beach front cottages.
