Radio Times
With The Apartment, Jack Lemmon defined the urbanised, neurotic, sexually insecure American male. Thus typecast, Lemmon drifted through a series of movies including this “sex comedy”. Nowadays it seems hopelessly dated, but in the ghetto of Beverly Hills in 1963 it was probably regarded as deeply subversive. Lemmon plays a lecherous landlord who starts to lust after one of his tenants, Carol Lynley, who is living with her boyfriend (Dean Jones). Lemmon always has his precious moments and those make this comedy of frustration worth watching — just. It was a big hit and led to a companion effort from Lemmon and co-writer/director Swift called Good Neighbor Sam.
