There are so many. Consider the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. Not too many directors would be confident enough to feature a comedy with a violent massacre of unarmed men. The depiction of Spats Columbo's cold-blooded murder of Toothpick Charlie and his friends, inspired by the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, is a violent image. While we do not see explicit violence, the guns are loud and we (as well as Joe and Jerry) are not spared from seeing Spats' ruthlessness. This scene, and Billy Wilder's confidence to make it so explicit, signals that Some Like it Hot is a comedy that can get pretty dark. There is nothing inherently funny about the gunning down of the gangster in a garage, but it does set the plot in motion and the desperation on the faces of Jerry and Joe is the engine that drives the outlandish lengths to which they are willing to go to survive.
