| 1. All About Eve (Two-Disc Special Edition) | 
| Starring: Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Celeste Holm, Bess Flowers
April 08, 2008
At the risk of being de trop (or "de tropp", as Celeste Holm's character, Karen, pronounces the French expression), I am going to add my two-centimes-worth, and join the chorus of praise for this magnificent specimen of The Golden Age of Hollywood, in which Fortune favoured Twentieth-Century Fox in that they did NOT cast Claudette Colbert as Margo Channing, Jose Ferrer as Addison DeWitt, Zsa Zsa Gabor... more

I always love Marilyn Monroe movies. Her wit, charm and 'realness' always shines through. This one is a favorite of mine and when I found it in DVD form, just had to have it!! ... more

| | 5. Gentlemen Prefer Blondes |
| Starring: Jane Russell, Marilyn Monroe, Charles Coburn, Elliott Reid, Tommy Noonan
Directed By: Howard Hawks
May 29, 2001
This fun piece of fluff is well worth your time for the title song alone. What a fun ride! Marilyn Monroe stars as the not-as-dumb-as-everyone-thinks blonde bombshell who has a feverish passion for diamonds. Her diamond fetish creates loads of trouble for her and friend Dorothy (Jane Russell) and loads of fun for us. If you've never seen a Monroe vehicle, let this be your first. She was a comic... more

| | 6. River of No Return |
| Starring: Robert Mitchum, Marilyn Monroe, Rory Calhoun, Tommy Rettig, Murvyn Vye
Directed By: Jean Negulesco, Otto Preminger
May 14, 2002
I ordered this DVD having a bit of a Bob Mitchum season of movies - did this man have a great presence on screen or what? I had no idea what to expect from this title. Given Otto Preminger's reputation during his Film Noir years, I thought it might be quite entertaining. Well, it was, but mostly for all the wrong reasons. Marilyn Monroe breaking into incongruous ballads with her guitar every... more

| | 8. The Prince and the Showgirl | 
| Starring: Daphne Anderson, Maxine Audley, Vera Day, Aubrey Dexter, Harold Goodwin
January 08, 2002
This is a very mediocre movie. If it did not have the divine Marilyn and sir Olivier in it, if others had played their parts, nobody today would remember this flick. As it is, Olivier does well playing an ultra stuffed-shirt aristocrat, as there is nothing more to the character than that. The only real virtue of the movie is Marilyn, who in this movie, even more so than many of her others, is . ... more

| | 9. The Asphalt Jungle |
| Starring: Sterling Hayden, Louis Calhern, Jean Hagen, James Whitmore, Sam Jaffe
Directed By: John Huston
July 06, 2004
Features:- Oscar-winning director John Huston's comprehensive and widely-acclaimed Film Noir "The Asphalt Jungle" featured an extensive cast, including Sterling Hayden (later of Dr. Strangelove fame) and an early film performance by Marilyn Monroe. In this Film Noiric, now on DVD, a group of professional criminals put together an elaborate jewel heist, only to have it unravel disastrously (per Film Noir conv
The head bad guy in this movie is a crooked lawyer
who is having an affair with Marilyn Monroe.
The jewel heist is well planned, but everything does wrong.
Sterling Hayden is one that the action centers around
and he is described as a small time hooligan.
The movie is mad with class, but seems to be a "message"
peace about crooked cops and crime.
I liked the... more
