Billy Wilder helped define the golden age of Hollywood, with a 5-decade career that includes classics such as Sunset Boulevard, Some Like it Hot, and Double Indemnity. Added to that list of classics is The Apartment, the film that won Wilder three Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. In attempt to climb the corporate ladder, insurance clerk Bud Baxter lends his apartment to executives at his company to use for rendezvous with their mistresses. While he may be getting closer to a promotion, his scheme may loose him more than access to his apartment.
