Average Rating:	Some Like It Hot - Special Edition [1959] starring: Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, George Raft, Pat O'Brien directed by: Billy Wilder November 26, 2001		List Price: Â£19.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.58 You Save: £15.41 (77%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£4.00
This film appeals on so many levels - it's a farce, a sophisticated comedy, a gangster movie, a musical - some classic lines and probably a good contender for the best last line ever. Please watch this, it's that good. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Marilyn Monroe: The Collection (Vol. 1) starring: Marilyn Monroe November 12, 2007		Used Price: Â£13.00
I am a long term marilyn fan so of course bought the previous Diamond Collection of her movies issued only last year. This year the money grabbing studio split the package into two and to make us buy it all over again they add in 4 rare early movies of hers which are previously unreleased in this country even on dvd. I have them on video bought from America but obviously its not the same as having the remastered dvd versions. So I've had to buy this and I love it but I'm just so annoyed that movie studios do these kind of things to basically take advantage of true fans. I can't even resell my original collection as they've made sure there is a rare documentary included on that which isnt on the new versions! Its just not fair! >>More Details

'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' is a musical about two showgirls and best friends who go on a trip to Paris and find love (and diamonds) on the way. Lorelei Lee (Marilyn Monroe) is engaged to a millionaire, but Dorothy Shaw (Jane Russell) doesn't care about money - Lorelei can't understand her! They are on the ship when they realize that Lorelei's fiance's father has hired a Private Eye to see if Lorelei is behaving herself. But of course, Dorothy has to fall for him! The movie is quite short, slightly under an hour and a half, but it packs a lot into that time. It is funny, sparkling with some great songs. Jane Russell is funny and down-to-earth, but Marilyn clearly steals the show as Lorelei with her funny sayings and obsessions with ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	The Misfits [1961] starring: Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, Montgomery Clift, Thelma Ritter, Eli Wallach directed by: John Huston November 26, 2001		List Price: Â£15.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£5.68 You Save: £10.31 (64%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£3.88
As the story opens, Roslyn (Marilyn Monroe) has just arrived in Reno to get a quickie divorce. She meets Guido (Eli Wallach), a sensitive mechanic and his pal Gay (Clark Gable), an aging cowboy. Both men fall in love with the beautiful, child-like blonde, and she ends up living with Gay in Guido's house. The men take Roslyn out the desert to go "mustangin'," but she's horrified when she learns the purpose of their trip. This story is about four aimless and rather pathetic people who have nothing to do and no place to do it in. They're just drifting through life and for a short time, they drift together. Gable is outstanding as the rugged old cowpoke who still wants a woman's touch. He takes manly command of every scene and is charisma ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	How To Marry A Millionaire [1953] starring: Marilyn Monroe, Betty Grable, Lauren Bacall, William Powell directed by: Jean Negulesco May 22, 2006		List Price: Â£12.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£3.98 You Save: £9.01 (69%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£2.00
The title of the movie says it all; it is not exactly the movie a modern day feminist would like to see; then again it stars some of greatest women of Hollywood. The main attraction of the movie are; Schatze Page (Lauren Bacall), Pola Debevoise (Marilyn Monroe), and Loco Dempsey (Betty Grable). This romantic comedy is set in Manhattan about three women who team up with an elaborate scheme to lure wealthy men with an intention to marry them. They rent a penthouse, sell the furniture that doesn't belong to them, and use the funds to support themselves. Schatze is the team leader who is smart and all brains; other two are ditsy blondes. Schatze has her eyes set on an elderly, charming and wealthy widower J.D. Hanley (William Powell), at the same time ignores the advances ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	Seven Year Itch [1955] starring: Marilyn Monroe, Tom Ewell, Robert Strauss, Oscar Homolka, Marguerite Chapman directed by: Billy Wilder May 22, 2006		List Price: Â£12.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.97 You Save: £8.02 (62%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£6.99
The divine Marilyn is the real reason to see this fairly clumsy comedy, since her male lead Tom Ewell is a decent likeable jobbing actor but no movie star, in spite of having apparently starred in the theatre version of the play. He can't, as they say, carry the picture, and it's tragic to read that Billy Wilder tested, and wanted, the young Walter Matthau for the part, but was over-ruled by the studio, since Matthau wasn't a name at the time. Matthau and Monroe, now there would have been a five star combination. When Monroe is on screen the whole thing takes off, but in between, the long scenes with Ewell alone indulging his jokey sexual fantasies are clunky and one-note and haven't worn well with time. That there is no sexual chemistry whatever between the stars presumably ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	All About Eve (2 Disc Cinema Reserve Special Edition In Metal Case) [1950] starring: Bette Davis, Eddie Fisher, Barbara Bates, Walter Hampden, Eugene Borden directed by: Joseph L. Mankiewicz February 27, 2006		List Price: Â£17.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£7.18 You Save: £10.81 (60%) Prices subject to change. Used Price:
Far more eloquent people than I have extolled the virtues of this classic - not least, the Academy themselves who nominated it for an unbeaten 14 Oscar nominations (it won 6). It's not often one can say a movie is perfect, especially one over half a century old - and yet this movie does just that. It is a perfect fusion of cast, director, and above all, script. And what a genius screenplay it is - literate, without ever being elitist. Scathing and caustic yet never lacking warmth, it is remarkable that such an insightful movie about women was made by a man - Joseph L. Mankiewicz. The story revolves around Eve Harrington, a young woman who appears as an adoring fan at the theatre back door, waiting for Margo Channing, played by Bette Davis. At first doting and adoring, ...

Used Price: Â£11.99
This is a good boxset for a new Marilyn fan or one who wants only a few of her films, for they are her most famous ones (although I think it should include 'Some Like it Hot' too.) All of them are pretty short (all under an hour forty-five) but they're all very good. How to Marry a Millionaire - 1953. Marilyn plays Pola Debevoise, a short-sighted dumb blonde who wants to, well, marry a millionaire, like her friends Betty Grable and Lauren Bacall (who out of the three is the principal character). The film is light and funny, and 'creamy'! Gentlemen Prefer Blondes - 1953. Marilyn plays gold-digging Lorelei Lee in this musical. The film is probably best known for the song 'Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend' - excellent by the way - but in fact all of the songs are ... Read More: >>More Details
