Floor Plan

Lately I've watched three different black-and-white Billy Wilder films from the 60s, The Apartment, Kiss Me, Stupid, and The Fortune Cookie. Seeing them all in a few days, it hit me how similar the living spaces looked.

We look in from the window at the living room. This is where we get most of the action. There's a door where people enter from outside on the right. To the back on the right is the kitchen. To the back on the left is the bedroom.

Maybe Wilder (or his favorite art director Alexander Trauner) liked a certain style. Or maybe he was just stuck in a rut.
