Cinema Rediscovered: The Apartment

Director
Billy Wilder
Certificate
PG
Running Time
125 mins

The classic Billy Wilder satire that frequently appears on those all-time-great lists. Put-upon insurance clerk Jack Lemmon rents his apartment out to philandering senior executives, only to find that he has outsmarted himself when the woman of his dreams – elevator operator Shirley MacLaine – is brought there by his boss (Fred MacMurray).

This new 4K restoration is on screen in the Restored and Rediscovered strand of Cinema Rediscovered.
