SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959) Stream on the Criterion Channel and Amazon. Rent on Google Play, iTunes, Vudu and YouTube. Marilyn Monroe shines in this classic romantic comedy by Billy Wilder. She plays Sugar, a performer who catches the eye of two men, Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon), when they join her traveling band for its trip to Miami. The problem is that Joe and Jerry have disguised themselves as women in order to escape the gangsters who are pursuing them in Chicago. To keep safe they have to maintain their false identities, but as long as they do, neither can pursue Sugar. Joe tries to get around this issue by reinventing himself as Junior, an heir to an oil fortune. Regarded now as a cinematic treasure for its meticulous construction and timeless laughs, the film is also notable for including several music performances by Monroe.
SEX AND THE CITY 2 (2010) Stream on Netflix. Rent on Amazon, Google Play, iTunes, Vudu and YouTube. New York is arguably as big a character in “Sex and the City” as Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda or Samantha. But for a good chunk of this installment of the franchise, the women leave the Big Apple behind. Their destination: Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. Samantha, a public relations maven, has a client there who treats her and her friends to an all-expenses-paid trip. Their time in the Middle East includes all cultural faux pas you’d expect, and Aiden, a divisive character from the original series, makes an appearance.
BUFFALO ’66 (1998) Stream on Hulu and Amazon. Rent on Google Play, iTunes, Vudu and YouTube. Vincent Gallo returns to the city he left at 16 in this film about a troubled man desperate to win his parents’ approval. Soon after being released from prison, Billy (Gallo) kidnaps a tap dancer named Layla (Christina Ricci) and forces her to pose as his wife. After unsuccessfully trying to curry favor with his emotionally distant father (Ben Gazzara) and obsessive mother (Anjelica Huston), Billy and Layla go bowling and check into a motel, where they acknowledge the real connection they’ve developed. But their deepening relationship is threatened by Billy’s desire to take revenge on the man he thinks is responsible for sending him to prison. Janet Maslin called the film “a deadpan original mixing pathos with bravado” in her review for The Times.

FLORIDA STATE SEMINOLES VS. DUKE BLUE DEVILS 7 p.m. on ESPN.

The last time they met, in the 2019 ACC championship game, Duke won 73-63, with Zion Williamson scoring 21 points. But Williamson decided to leave college basketball behind and was drafted by the New Orleans Pelicans last summer. Florida State will hope that loss has weakened the perennial powerhouse from North Carolina.
