No one writes and directs a film quite like the immortal Billy Wilder. In this episode we discuss THE APARTMENT (1960) with our guest Bob Bookman, a film fanatic and longtime Hollywood agent. Bob tells us about his unique encounter with Wilder, and then shares a surprising theory about the film. Also: what did Wilder really think of Jack Lemmon? Did Shirley MacLaine act in a past life?
