This movie and Some Like It Hot are really the best of Marilyn: light comedy, and the combination of “innocence” and “bombshell” in just the right balance. Seven Year Itch has a slightly creepy edge and some of her other roles weighed her down a little, especially the more serious ones. In this film, you get to root for all the leads and there’s no villainy or sadness to spoil it. All ends happily.
Marilyn considered her serious work to be her best and she was really tormented about being stuck in typecasting and not being able to take on all those serious, complex roles.
Marilyn was a great comedic actress! Her timing is perfection. I wonder if she played an instrument. Many great comedians played an instrument, and it perfected their timing.
I wonder if she would have thrived better in today's Hollywood where comedy is more respected. There are still limitations for actresses, but look at the range of roles Margot Robbie plays.
@@koleyw932maybe. It all depends on who is judging you and who you seek approval from, I think. Grace Kelly was respected as an actress, but her family never cared how many Oscars she won, for them, that career choice was for trash folks and they wanted her to go into politics and philanthropy, as she came from upper class society. It never mattered that she married the Prince of Monaco. Meanwhile Marilyn would've loved those classy roles Grace Kelly had. But Marilyn had no family to "stick it to," the way Grace did. But I find it so interesting that Grace's family had so much pride, they didn't allow themselves to be proud of her. Not to mention public perception. Consider that Grace Kelly legitimately came from high society, as was the title of one of her greatest films. Try to imagine Marilyn playing in "high society"... consider the image. Grace, stunning and gorgeous as she was, didn't have the figure Marilyn had. I think people found Marilyn's character more relatable on the whole though. Everyone loves Grace Kelly but who do we talk about more as the years roll on? Whose films do we watch more? High Society or Gentleman Prefer Blondes, etc?
@@BrickCityEllA -- Yes, I certainly remember those types of glasses. (I'm that old!) 😏 They didn't look good on me either. Maybe I should have had some 'bling' added. 😄
She was so great in everything she did! Oh Marilyn I’m sure you shine even brighter (if that’s even possible) where you are now. What a legacy and legend she left here on earth. What a spectacular magnificent woman! ; it’s mind-boggling how no one has come close to what Marilyn did, to who she was and how she sparkled. We only got one ☝️ I just love her so! ❤ RIP Angel! Love you forever! Thank you for this upload Mark 😊
She looks good in anything, but her glasses are not for nearsighted, look, they made her eyes even bigger, they are reading glasses 😂 But her mannerism and her voice are so precious, i wonder if she was like that in real life, all silk... Sleep, Dear Beauty...😢
My cousin is a film historian and has been on CNN & Turner Classic Movies channel, her books sold in stores around the nation. She wrote on Marilyn. Anyway, Norma Jean (aka Marilyn) hated these films .. she wanted to be taken seriously by the academy and desired the more "Grace Kelly" type films or like Audrey Hepburn. She hated this dumb blonde persona. Her marriages didn't last. I can't imagine seeing her angry for real or anything when I watch these films, but I imagine she had her moments. Her life was tragic in her youth. Tragic in totality in my opinion.
People assuming older movies always had an issue with beauty standards because of something like the "taking off the glasses to be beautiful" trend of the late 90s/early 00s drives me batty because of a scene like this.
Compare the glasses that were taken off vs the glasses put on. Her glasses had diamantés and had the very flattering feline cat eye shape. The glasses in other movies the girls had taken off were bulky, had old fashioned designs and basically unflattering.
@@iliketoastems I think back to the frightful pair Stephanie had in Full House, lol. It's so strange, it's like strawmanning glasses essentially to imply they're always ugly when you only showcase ones that don't suit a woman. Mine are like a round/cat eye hybrid and my boyfriend agrees with me I look better with them on, just like in the scene. Go figure. 🤷♀
Marilyn Monroe Elegante actriz de impecable elegancia, mujer de grande, mágica belleza e innegable talento, tierna, sensible, noble y sufrida, tu trágico final te coronó en la gloria y en la cumbre, de los inmortales, hasta los siglos y para la eternidad. Serás único e irrepetible....descansa en paz...
Here she was. Iconic MM herself showing us a girl with glasses is HOT! Yet we had 90s showing girls with glasses taking them off to show the pretty face and even in 2023 we have Barbie movie using it as a bs bias
If I were that male, I wouldn't say a single word to that blondie! Her hair is well starched! Her neck scarf is shinny - complementing her hair colour. Her gloves are matching her hair colour. She's fishing for that one dish that will feed her a lifetime... 🤠 Now, I understood! Why Dua Lipa moves her lips, mouth and tongue in that certain way. Women are conman! Marilyn gave me the eyes to see Dua Lipa for what she is worth - an old maid nevertheless !!! Thank God !! Callum bought Dua Lipa for real ✅ They are both a long term item 😮
This was a comedic scene. It's meant to be silly and the writing is on point for that. Try watching something more serious like Casablanca for memorable lines.
@@shutinalleyActually, only a 'simpleton' in your words, would think you require a specific format for humour. Some humour is subtle, not a standard 'joke' format with 'punch lines.' Also, context matters. This scene is about the irony of thinking women cannot be beautiful if they wear glasses. Having one of the most beautiful women of the era put on glasses and pretend she was worried she was no longer beautiful, underscores the ABSURDITY of this notion and pushes back against it without being rude or aggressive. Using humour to make an actual point that makes people's lives BETTER, thar has undoubtedly helped the self-esteem of countless young women who wear glasses, is worth a lot more than stock jokes relying on punch lines. And it takes more intelligence to understand the message in subtle humour than one that hits you over the head. It doesn't have to be a movie you enjoy. People can have different tastes. But you not liking something doesn't make it badly done. You don't make the rules on what is ACTUALLY clever, and you not being able to understand it is actually an argument for the writers being cleverer than you!
'Aren't you funny? Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You might not marry a girl just because she's pretty but my goodness doesn't it help?'
@@cmm5542 Nothing like the subtle dry humor of how shallow people were back then where the nerdy millionaire impresses the ditsy sounding hot blonde pretending to wear glasses because he knows better. Yeah, the lead content in people was strong. I'm sure you were alive long enough to get a taste.
Is MM really acting or does she pretend that she is acting 🙂? I think it does not matter, because She could always absolutely rely on her phenomenal presence and impact in front of the camera ...
she reminds me of Britney Spears not gorgeous but super adorable very attractive extremely charming and strong stage presence insane sexual charisma all of that matters !!

I love old movies from the 30s to the 50s. Absolutely innocent and authentic.
Yeah. Black when USA didnt invade other countries
Even the fact the sex was not obvious made it even more sexy, charming, innocent and so much less comercial
She found her perfect match. Someone who wears glasses too.
Marilyn is Wonderful in this movie, I Love her 😍😘💘🌹
Now I know why she was so popular, her way of acting 🎬 is outstanding 👏 RIP
I love her suit and blouse.
She had good taste.

Marilyn Monroe had the sweetest voice. A beautiful blonde with a sweet voice. A true man magnet 🧲 indeed. 😘😉
She attracted bad men.
AFAIK she was not a blonde but a Jewish person .
Yes, she was irresistible
Her irresistible combination of iconic beauty, innocence, sexuality and raw talent can never be matched. No one can come even close. RIP Norma Jean ❤❤
Well stated. We love MM 💕
❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you 🙏
What a coincidence - Elton John composed a song about someone called Norma Jean ..

The pace of the speech, people did think! Before speaking. People do not rush speaking
GENIUS ACTING!!
Indeed.
This is the most cute and innocent scene I've ever seen
She’s so beautiful her voice is so authentic ❤
Mrs. Norma Jean; some fantastic acting you did there, well done young lady.
I loved her in these films. She had the dumb and innocent thing down pat. ❤ We look back and see just what great actress she really was.
Iconic film!
Just gorgeous 💙💙💙
I love this movie!
It's breathtaking how suave she was. Every time I see her, I fall for her.
The expression used to be " boys dont make passes at girls who wear glasses"...
I like when he calls her " quite a strudel"
I love Marilyn! ❤❤❤❤❤

True. Also Niagara!
A tidbit on Marilyn. She had an IQ of 165, 5 higher than her friend Albert Einstein.
I knew a woman who was cousin of Joe di Maggio
She said
Marilyn had a high IQ
She was so adorable! Loved her voice. I fall in love ❤every time I see her. I hope I find my Marilyn someday.
She’s amazing ❤🥰😘
Marilyn was a great comedic actress! Her timing is perfection. I wonder if she played an instrument. Many great comedians played an instrument, and it perfected their timing.
Poor Marilyn... such wonderful soul
For generations, men always love a gal in glasses 👓 😊
Beautiful girl ❤
One of my favorite movie scenes 💕
That's so hilarious. Bless her heart for playing a comedian❤ She did want to be taken as a serious actress, though she said so in an interview
Marylin was brilliant, but victimized. She was way more than that persona. Love her.
I wonder if she would have thrived better in today's Hollywood where comedy is more respected. There are still limitations for actresses, but look at the range of roles Margot Robbie plays.
She was underestimated in her time, a very sexist time. I think she'd be valued more now.

For me, no one compares, Marilyn Monroe stands as the pinnacle of Caucasian beauty
She's doing a great job acting like she can't see him
Inspector Queen!
Oh how cute is that, so naive but perfect. Becouse it is Marilyn
I like this moment very much. Being a girl who wears glasses I understand this character very well.
That is so much pain, just thoughts came, she lived in hard stress and got all that success in vain, empty life 🙁
I want those gloves.
i like it when ahe realuzes she took the wrong plane!! ❤❤❤
Need to book a flight asap ❤
