The Apartment
Billy Wilder (dir.) · 1960
American
A junior insurance clerk lends his apartment to the company executives for their affairs and falls in love with the elevator operator. Wilder's most humane film, and one of the great closing lines in cinema.
A note to parents
Adultery and a suicide attempt are central to the plot; both are referenced rather than depicted.
