"The mirror... It's broken." "Yes, I know. I like it that way. Makes me look the way I feel."
Josh LewisJan 8, 2018100 "Night like this, it sorta spooks you, walking into an empty apartment." "I said I had no family. I didn't say I had an empty apartment." A film of deliciously dark and humbling set-ups and payoffs, each built with an inherent comic purpose, eventually…

eelyDec 25, 2020I love that CC isn’t actually an especially great guy. He’s well meaning but completely ineffectual and unquestioning of the toxic ladder he’s at the bottom of. His niceness is never presented as anything stronger or more profound than that. He’s simply nice. Were he to…

cookieDec 16, 201897/100 I want to talk about a cinematic trope that (to the best of my knowledge) has never been given a name. I'm gonna call it Oppositional Processing. [ADDED YEARS LATER BECAUSE PEOPLE KEEP LEAVING THE SAME COMMENT: No, it’s not dramatic irony, though they’re related.…

just really beautifully made in all ways; it’s writing, acting, humour, cinematography. It captures loneliness so well. And the humour, set-ups and pay-offs just so simple yet unique. One of my favourites ever probably.
Lawndawn lovedThe ApartmentNearly perfect. Unique yet simple concept. The script is iron clad, with enough out of pocket left turns to keep the audience engaged. Everything happens twice, in the form of effective callbacks. Reminds us that it really can work out in the end if we stick are good to others.
Seth Orpheus lovedThe ApartmentI’ve seen this movie before and I’ve loved it every time. Baxter is a great representation of how it is to climb the toxic corporate ladder 🤌 The writing, the acting, everything about this movie is beautifully crafted.

Cutest love story, movie aged like fine wine, makes you want to dress like a 1960s office worker and smoke a cigarette on a cold, dreary night alone under a streetlight
Alfie Murray likedThe Apartmentplot is basic but it was actually quite good
Sara lovedThe ApartmentAbsolutely brilliant, movie-wise

Meg likedThe ApartmentBest Picture Oscar winner 1961 (33rd Academy Awards) My Rating: 8/10 Nominated for 10 Oscar’s and won 5. Shirley MacLaine and Jack Lemmon are perfect in this movie together and deserve all the accolades. The subject matter is tough in some parts. But also hilarious. 🤩
Alex likedThe ApartmentThis was actually such a cute movie. You just fall in love with Baxter and love how caring and sweet he is to everyone. It’s giving 80’s rom com. And I see so much tom hanks and Jim Carrey in the lead actor.

Metacritic
The underlying seriousness of MacLaine's performance helps anchor the picture--it raises the stakes, and steers it away from any tendency to become musical beds.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
Absolutely brilliant. It's funnier, sadder and cooler on the big screen.
