This scene with the twirling couples has so much grace - no comparison to anything today - one thing you will note about Marilyn - believe it or not - that girl was INTELLIGENT, but she covered it up for the image.
A difficult scene in the middle of several extras. Incredible her performance was not recognized with an Oscar nomination. But she won the David Di Donatello award for best foreign actress.
Williamjones7163 -- Oh, puh-leeze! Every woman who dances ballroom matches her partner's steps while going backwards in heels. I can dance the waltz too, and very well I might add. Being an actress has nothing to do with it. Yes, Marilyn was a good actress. I especially liked The Misfits.
Her voice seems higher than usual. She almost has a Betty Boop sound. She was so bubbly and sweet in this role. It’s hard to imagine she was having personal hardships. She just seems so innocent, and happy.
Wow, for all the troubles the production went through with Marilyn's "attitude" and how she struggled to "get" the character, she was simply BREATHTAKINGLY MARVELOUS AND EXQUISITE. She is so natural and lovely...
@@tihahtargaryen6695 the dir. also her co-star Lawrence Oliver, didn't have patience with Marilyn, he would often insult her and be aggressive with her on set.He wasn't understanding of how she was as an actress and mistreated her alot, which made her more uncomfortable and more unwilling on set. It's quite interesting if you wanna read up more on it.
@@Izabelle710 He turned down Vivien Leigh to play the lead actress in this movie because he said she is too old. And yet, I do think he is also too old for the leading male role.
Despite all the struggle, the movie turned out pretty good. I wish people didn't prey on Marilyn so much, they medicated her so they could control her, and never offered her support for all her troubles. I'm glad we have this remembrance of these two fantastic talents.
I'm a U.S. senior citizen. I have never heard of Marilyn Monroe being "medicated" by others, ever. She imbibed & popped pills by her own doing. You're thinking of Judy Garland.
+Patrick Fallon * Ah yes...quite wonderful indeed. A great comic actress whose most delightfully comic moments still tough on our heart strings, a unique phenomenon-forever fascinating!
Me Marilyn was celebrating the Ms universe achievement award. Also pregnant with her amaculate conception ametrisis with intwine baby this year while filming 1974. Wonderful!
Sir Lawrence found himself to be too wooden and artificial in his portrayal. Despite his problems with Marilyn during the picture, he acknowledged her naturalness and her love affair with the camera. She stole the movie from him.
wow the extras dancing on the outsides really got a good workout having to make the crowd appear to spin around them. she was amazing when she was "on".
I keep watching clips hoping to see why people are in love with her. She just seems ordinary to me. Sophia Loren and Bardot I understand, and the only one that makes my heart flutter in modern cinema is Monica Bellucci...but, Marilyn no!
It may have been harder than pulling hen's teeth to get Marilyn in front of the camera, but once she was there....The actress who played the dotty queen dowager (Olivier's mother-in-law in the film) after watching the daily rushes remarked that Marilyn made the rest of the cast appear as if they were OVER-acting.
MOnroe never been so beautiful.....And ....she is the Star here....In this movie, she gives us all her talent....despite all the difficulties she's been throu the making, and the bully Actor/director she had....they still look great together...and they hated each other....so I think...that's great acting
Bully actor/director? She would be four hours late regularly, threw hysterical fits, she was a handful. Bc she;s so charming and lovely when she's finally on, don't be fooled. She created a whole lot of problems. Of course, she was very troubled.
It's impressive to me just how much she outshines Olivier as an actor. And equally impressive how, in the universe of the film, her character can fall in love with his. He's quite detestable in my opinion.
While filming the movie "The prince and the showgirl" British actress Sybil Thorndike said "We absolutely need her. She is the only one of us who really knows how to behave in front of the camera". And indeed Marilyn eclipsed Laurence Olivier
He's supposed to be detestable. The British used to think that detestable Eastern Europeans were funny and/or entertaining. Why do you think Dracula exists?
@@classiclife7204 Is he though? I always got the impression that he was trying to play the role seriously but the way it came off seemed like more of a caricature. Not only that, he's simply an unlikeable character.
@@darthdaddy3071 Yes, he's an unlikable character. This play by Rattigan is what they called a "Ruthenian romance" or "Ruthenian comedy". Both the "comedy" and "romance" is supposed to stem from the idea of a sassy, streetwise, yet fundamentally innocent and sweet American falling for her complete opposite, an uptight and yet depraved prince from some fictional European monarchy by the Black Sea. The dude wears a MONOCLE. It's supposed to be funny. Or that's what the essays on the subject tell me, lol. The movie actually improves when one realizes the Olivier character is not supposed to be a serious romantic attachment for the heroine.
@@classiclife7204 That makes sense then, if it's a whole genre. It's difficult for me though to find it very funny or suspend my disbelief as far as the romance goes, just because he comes across as such an A-hole and she comes across as quite savvy and streetwise. Its hard for me to believe that their respective character's could even stand to be in the same room with each other long enough to fall in love, even if it is supposed to be a comedy. I watch it, and all I see is Toxic Relationship tbh
She/Monroe was, is and will be AN IMMORTAL MOVIE IDOL of the world FOREVER, THOSE IN OLD days ALL DIRECTORS WERE BULLSHIT, they couldn't value of her but disrespect totally.
Her life so tragically sad her talent so genuinely authentic She was the golden girl that women loved to hate And the woman other men wished that they had for themselves.
It's the role, fools. He's playing a very unsympathetic, cold, narcissistic character. You're confusing him with the role. She's of course charming, sexy, and sympa.
@@Neva2018 ... Обычно мне нравится переводить комментарий с иностранного языка на английский, если он грубый или оскорбительный. В таком случае я удалю его!
She was wonderful but her range was very small. She always played herself. Very entrancing, yes, but bigger stars who could also act, Greta Garbo, Audrey Hepburn comes at the top of my mind.
I like this scene and the sweet, sexy window dance that she does later in the film. Flawed film tho-- jump cuts, she didn't bathe or change clothes for 3 days, silly dialogue, Olivier's Prince had no game...no chemistry between the two leads---weird direction... (it may have helped if they hadn't styled Olivier's hair like Julius Caesar, lol) but it leaves you wondering if they really got together after the year passed....I sorta think Prince may have moved on...I dunno....
Although this film has plenty of flaws and needed a decent edit.I think it's her strongest acting out of all her work! She really delivers a subtly clever performance and saves what would have been a fairly dull movie done by anyone else.
The only movie to come from Marilyn Monroe productions. Olivier seeed to forget that she was his employer. Was patronizing to her which was the worst thing to do, he had been warned. The only reason that this was her only production was Miller was jealous of her partner Milton Greene. A hole!!
According to the interview elsewhere on UA-cam, Larry was frustrated by Marilyn’s tardiness and insistence on multiple takes. I don’t think that makes him an a**hole.
How dare you blame name of Sir Laurence Olivier! The greatest actor and director and no one compares him. You also must be blind if you can't see that he was very handsome man in 49 years old.
MARILYN MONROE, comme bien d'autres star du cinéma me plaisait également d'ailleurs je retenais toutes les manières de ces artistes, de plus toutes les chansons qu'elles interpétaient, j'aurais voulu faire un métier d'artiste, mais il fallait connaître la bonne personne qui m'aurait lancé disons dans ce corps de métier et puis jeune à mon avis on a plus de chance car on est plus fraîche en tout, plus énergique certainement qu'à un âge un peu plus avancé dans la vie.
I swear every man that she loved for the movie was just too old like I would want to see her with James dean or somebody younger or her age like every man he played in a movie with that she loved the movie just looks too old for her

She's a real life Cinderella in this film
yo the dialogue though man he just cut her down saying that she's incompetant/too dumb for politics and is better off as a charming whore
Olivia oh thanks 🥰 for your so nice Compliments for ❤️ Marilyn Monroe..., She was my mom age, my DOB too in 1926.

Such a beautiful dance and Marilyn was so radiant.
She was absolutely mesmerizing. You cannot help but to continue to keep looking at her. ❤️😍
She was so beautiful here, that unmistakable American beauty.
Yes, if you ignore her ever present pot belly!
@@oksills that’s her uterus, dear.
But not smart.
Being used by men.
A difficult scene in the middle of several extras. Incredible her performance was not recognized with an Oscar nomination. But she won the David Di Donatello award for best foreign actress.
⭐⭐⭐⭐1/2 Brilliant! Miss Monroe💋 was absolutely charming in this scene. She is elegant, beautiful and has the essence of a true princess...❤
And she danced every step he did except dancing backwards and in heels. She was a talented actress.

I loveeeee marilyn so much❤️❤️❤️ she was so freaking pretty , rip ❤️
And a fabulous comedienne!
These old mass ballroom scenes where all the dancers move on the floor as one are enchanting.
I love the way everyone moved as one right before The Prince and the Showgirl danced
Oh to live in the days of the waltzes. Such a graceful dance.
The waltz was considered scandalous when in started because the dancers' bodies touched (as opposed to dances like the minuet).
Very charming - and wonderfully choreographed.
One of her best, the beauty, cunning, her abilities to con the man, a true Devi
Her Magic is undeniable so sweet!
Like her, there will never be another one, and God knows how many imitators she has had
Her voice seems higher than usual. She almost has a Betty Boop sound. She was so bubbly and sweet in this role. It’s hard to imagine she was having personal hardships. She just seems so innocent, and happy.
Tape's probably sped up.
not her voice. sad bc her voice is as beautiful as she is.
Wow, for all the troubles the production went through with Marilyn's "attitude" and how she struggled to "get" the character, she was simply BREATHTAKINGLY MARVELOUS AND EXQUISITE. She is so natural and lovely...
What troubles?!😳
Knowing how she was treated behind the scenes, I appreciate her acting in this film so much more
how did they treat her? Are they being harsh on her or what?

Me Marilyn was celebrating the Ms universe achievement award. Also pregnant with her amaculate conception ametrisis with intwine baby this year while filming 1974. Wonderful!
Her range was truly charming 😍 and eternal💕
It was very small range, charming and sexy.
She is different in the whole group of dancers , having safronic hairs and attracting beauty
An American rose 🌹❤️
She would've been a beautiful princess if she was born in the right place. Awm
Ohh god her comic timing 🤣
I loved her voice 😻
So sweet ❣️
My absolute favorite Marilyn movie!!
Its like the quote about Ginger Rogers.She did everything Fred Astaire did,backwards and in high heels.Marilyn did too.
She was a talented actress
she was wonderful lady in the old cinema classic in the Hollywood
The first movie I seen her ( don’t knock) she was a very good actress. 🌹
I love this scene and return here time after time to watch this
She was so beautiful.
Marilyn Monroe is the most beautiful girl in the world and actress
Que tierna, me encanta su dulce vocecita!
Love this movie

Thanks to hear your nice words 🤗🤗

Not all directors... Jean Negulesco loved her and understood her, I think.
Her life so tragically sad her talent so genuinely authentic She was the golden girl that women loved to hate And the woman other men wished that they had for themselves.
Lovely; talking democracy to a monarch. This is why she is more than a sex symbol.
Larry is so good looking in 49, only blind can't see it and hear his silver voice. ❤😊
It's funny, in this movie she is the better actor.
By far. She is the entire movie.

Bellissima fiaba in cui Marilyn sembra un po' come Cenerentola al ballo del principe ! 💖✨✨✨✨✨✨
How Beautiful
Olivier was more than gorgeous!
. . . with Laurence Olivier, the greatest actor of the twentieth century!

That monocle makes it looks like hes wearing a googly eye

goodgirl140 - By design, no doubt.
1:10
Not true.
MOST of the time she's the only noticeable blonde in this scene,done purposely were learning more about it in media
No she is not.
Какая красивая.
Marylin was a special woman never will born same again.Olivier can be just one from the men.
QUE GENIAL GENIAL GENIAL.
Quelle classe se sur Laurence Olivier .
Sempre linda 😻
she will be by all times the biggest star in the world. she was that femenin laidylike by all means. what many women to day never have. she was a dame

I can say women today still do, but only in the eastern world
where they are still under men's thumb, that is ...
