"Most of Marylin's movies."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Her first movie is not included, but it was a very small part: So are a couple of the ones in this package.

My favorites are here, The Seven Year Itch, Gentlemen Prefer Blonds and Some Like It Hot, are here; Bus Stop, which was seen as proof that Marylin could act; as well as Monkey Business, (notable for the best performance ever by an ape!)

I found them entertaining.

"wonderful movies from times gone bye!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Being a Marilyn Fan from way back, am absolutely loving watching these great classics. Seeing Marilyn starring alongside great stars such as Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon in “Some like it hot” is a treat and other titles in box set equally enjoyable,may be old now but still brings pleasure to me, thanks Faye.

Description

Includes eight classic Marilyn Monroe films – Bus Stop, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, How to Marry a Millionaire, Let's Make It Legal, Monkey Business, The Seven Year Itch, Some Like It Hot, There's No Business Like Show Business.

Bus Stop: In a brilliant performance that ultimately proved she was more than a pretty face, Marilyn delivers an energetic and warm portrayal of an innocent young singer working her way across the country towards a hopeful future in Hollywood

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: In one of her most popular films Marilyn sizzles as a glamorous blonde bombshell determined to marry her millionaire fiance so that she can discover for herself if Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend

How to Marry a Millionaire: In one of the finest comedic performances of her career Marilyn plays a delicious, yet decidedly vision impaired, young model, who, along with her two equally scheming friends, rents out a Manhattan penthouse in hopes of hooking rich husbands.

Let's Make It Legal: Marilyn Monroe makes a cameo appearance in a charming spoof on marriage! A still gorgeous grandmother (Claudette Colbert) divorces her husband Hugh (Macdonald Carey) because hes a compulsive gambler. Their daughter (Barbara Bates0 does all she can to get them back together, but problems arise when Victor (Zachary Scott), Mums high school sweetheart-turned-millionaire, suddenly arrives in town. Even though a breathtaking beauty (Marilyn Monroe) is hot on his trail, Vic only has eyes for Grandma driving ex-husband Hugh to the brink of comic insanity as he wages a wild and unforgettable battle to win his wife back.

Monkey Business: In this outrageous screwball comedy, a voluptuous secretary and her handsome boss cant stop themselves from engaging in a little monkey business after a chimpanzee accidentally concocts, then dumps, an anti-aging formula into the office water cooler.

The Seven Year Itch: While Hollywood censors kept a careful eye on the notoriously racy production, Marilyn was pure perfection as a sexy, yet innocent, starlet living upstairs from a married man who had just sent his wife and son away for the summer.

Some Like It Hot: Nominated for 6 Academy Awards. When Chicago musicians Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon) accidentally witness a gangland shooting, they quickly board a southbound train to Florida, disguised as Josephine and Daphne, the two newest and homeliest members of an all-girl jazz band. Their cover is perfect until a lovelorn singer (Monroe) falls for Josephine, an ancient playboy (Joe E Brown) falls for Daphne, and a mob boss (George Raft) who refuses to fall for their hoax, wants them put on ice for good.

There's No Business Like Show Business: Marilyn sings, dances and dazzles in this delightful musical saga of a show biz family looking back on their trials and triumphs, both in vaudeville and in life.
