Some Like It Hot

In Chicago, 1929, two musicians, Joe and Jerry, witness a mob killing. Fleeing from the gangsters, they disguise themselves as women and join an all-female band heading to Florida for a winter engagement. While on the train, they encounter the band's singer, the beautiful Sugar Kane, who Joe (as 'Josephine') falls for, and Jerry (as 'Daphne') finds himself pursued by an eccentric millionaire. Their ruse becomes increasingly complicated as the mob catches up with them.
