12) Some Like it Hot (1959)
Trending
In Some Like It Hot (1959), the legendary final scene took many retakes before Joe E. Brown, who says that line "Nobody's perfect," got his delivery just right. The scene in which Brown's Osgood joyfully accepts the news from Jerry (Jack Lemmon) that he's a man calls for a very exact delivery; it should not be too funny. Billy Wilder directed them to underplay it. As a placeholder, the line came to serve one of the greatest-ever, most oft-quoted endings in film history.
