Title:
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Synopsis:
Near Mint
Second-billed Marilyn Monroe is the blonde in question in this second film version of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: Miss Lorelei Lee, whose philosophy is âdiamonds are a girlâs best friend.â Together with her best human friend Dorothy (top-billed Jane Russell), showgirl Lorelei embarks upon a boat trip to Paris, where she intends to marry millionaire Gus Esmond (Tommy Noonan). En route, the girls are bedeviled by private detective Malone (Elliot Reid), hired by Esmondâs father (Taylor Holmes) to make certain that Lorelei isnât just another gold-digger. When Dorothy falls in love with the poverty-stricken Malone, Lorelei decides to find her pal a wealthier potential husband, and thatâs how she gets mixed up with flirtatious diamond merchant Sir Francis Beekman (Charles Coburn) and precocious youngster Henry Spofford III (George âFoghornâ Winslow). Most of the Leo Robin-Jule Styne songs from the Broadway show remain intact, including Marilyn Monroeâs rendition of âDiamonds are a Girlâs Best Friend,â a production number later imitated by pop icon Madonna. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
