just-rhys-things: griseldagimpel: emmanuelleriva:Some Like It Hot (1959) dir. Billy Wilder I studied this film in film class. It was one of the first films where the queer characters don’t get punished at the end but instead get to live happily ever after. It’s also the origin of the quote “Well, nobody’s perfect.” Unless I’m missing some context, I’m pretty sure “Nobody’s perfect” existed in the language before 1959. Edit: I take that back. Google’s n-gram viewer shows the phrase being used in print occasionally up to about 1960, then really taking off from there. -- source link
