I won’t bother making an argument for “The Importance of Being Earnest,” because maybe it’s for a niche audience, although I do think it belongs on the list; but you can’t have a funniest-movies-ever list without “Some Like It Hot”, if only for the fact that it has the funniest last line in any movie, ever. (Yes, they mention it on the entry for “The Apartment”, and they’re wrong.) I saw it in a rep cinema some years back, the house was full, and the entire audience went berserk at the end. A fair few people would argue it’s the funniest movie ever made.
