Remembering Hollywood Legend Tony Curtis

from National Public Radio

Tony Curtis has died at age 85. The actor played comedy well, but had many serious roles in films such as Spartacus and The Defiant Ones. He might be best remembered for the cross-dressing role he had in Some Like It Hot. NPR's Robert Siegel talks to writer Barry Parris, who helped Curtis write his autobiography.
