  • une tres grandr actrice

    

  • He out-acts her 200%...she just pulls dumb faces

  • she did nothing wrong, was scapegoated. She's gorgeous and focused in these scenes. They lied about her being useless. What a crock. Thanks for the upload.

  • She Was So Beautiful.

  • Geez, Cox is funny. So expressive. Shame this film wasn't finished.

  • She was absolutely too gorgeous for words!! She also was such a gentle soul!! RIP my dear Marilyn.

  • I agree the first take was just fine the way it was. Cukor was an asshole. And if they were banking on Marilyn, just one star, to save 20th Century Fox, I would say they had bigger problems than Marilyn herself. She definitely was their scapegoat. Liz Taylor was the one they needed to reign in, not Marilyn. It was outrageous the way they catered to Taylor. These guys were lousy businessmen at 20th Century.

  • amazing looking at her-she was about 10years ahead of time in her looks-this script dialogue wasnt anything flash-the first take wouldve been ok-to go thru the ritual and to have to remember the lines--no wonder-it drove her crazy-i think this movie needed a fast speedy efficient no nonsense director-to finish the movie-i just wonder what wally cox said to brando about marilyn-he himself left us about a decade later-lived on-she wouldve ended up retired by the 70s recluse-occasionly coming out.

  • Marilyn Monroe : The Greatest Star Ever!

  • Wally Cox and Marilyn were great friends They had a lot in common and they both had lonely hearts. He used to come over to the house and play with Maf. He was asked to play his role in "Move Over Darling" the rewrite of "Something's Got To Give" but he refused.A good friend to the end.

  • The first take is better than the second, I think. Especially when she winks after saying the word "medium". So choice. It showcases Marilyn's gift for doing comedy... which is not an easy thing to pull off!... What a mega-star.

  • Breath taking! The REAL reason Fox fired her was because the big 3 guys up top didn't have the balls to fire Elizabeth Taylor, who was costing more money and causing MUCH more problems... so they took it out on poor Marilyn. In my eyes Fox and Taylor/Burton all had a role in Marilyn's death... second hand of course.

  • Today, in 2011, the so called idea of a star is a pathetic joke. They are simply celebrities that are familiar, rich, and does the odd thing like sing or whatever.

    The real stars sang, danced, acted, worked in politics, wrote stories, poems, actually do live plays, modeled, did acres of truly worthwhile needy charities, went on talk shows and had interesting things to say. I am not interested in celebrities now at all really. No offence meant here.

  • In Marilyn and Judy's time they were real stars and now we have lost our very last star of the studio era...Elizabeth Taylor. She was the bravest woman I have ever "known".

  • Both Bette Davies and Olivia de Havilland took Jack Warner to court over his illegal; {adding on additional years to an already 7- year contract} with Jack Warner! Bette lost but thankfully Olivia won and every actor remained grateful forever to her forever.

  • Marilyn Monroe and Errol Flynn I feel was way too under-appreciated as actors. They really had true acting ability and yet were not treated seriously in life. How sad that is that when their own studio never appreciated their own stars who were so multitalented.

  • I detest how the old studio system takes credit for making Marilyn Monroe and

    Judy Garland the stars that they were/still are today. The studio heads were horrible to many of their stars, especially after the stars made millions for the studios. Drugs were started by the movie moguls to work the stars literally to death: 20 hours+ per day! Marilyn, Judy, and so many more stars aged way too fast and died way too young feeling unloved, unwanted and insecure due to this lifestyle.

  • Look how radiant she is- so on-the-ball, her reactions so well done.... and to think that Cukor and Fox thought her footage was unusable! Cukor just bullied her through her takes. As with most of the Hollywood celebrities and stars of that era, they were so jealous and envious of her rise to stardom.

  • @PJCoan She's incandescent here. And I think with Cukor and Fox it was something beyond jealousy--they took her utterly for granted. In her lifetime, only the fans seemed to grasp how rare and truly special she was. The powers that be persisted in the farcical notion that she could be "replaced". It was the same with Judy Garland--during the run of her tv show she was constantly being talked down to by tv execs who were not fit to open a door for her.

  • @PJCoan (continued) When Judy's show was canceled due to ratings the suits said she'd "failed." Ridiculous! THEY failed HER! Cukor and Fox failed Marilyn. Her problems drove Billy Wilder crazy too, but he knew better than to dump her when he made The Seven Year Itch and Some Like It Hot--he knew no one else could do what she did. No one even understood what she did.

  • Yes. I have very high hopes that more of it will become available closer to the 50th anniversary of her death. Hopefully.

  • I always watch this with a heavy heart. I cannot wrap my head around the fact that this was and will forever be the last Marilyn scene shot. I am in denial. Thanks for sharing Mark Monroe lol.

  • @MadonnaProject If FOX went to the trouble to restore all the SGTG footage why will they not make it avalible to marilyn fans. Whats the point in restoring it if no one will ever see it. I think they restored it 10 years ago.

  • @SGTG77 AMC once aired the 37 minutes of Marilyn's scenes along with the opening credits that had already been made as well, so this movie, as much as exists, has been aired at least once.

  • @jehobden Are you talking about the documentaries made about sgtg? as most of this has not been seen in documentaries etc.

  • @jehobden I dont just mean this video but also all the other sgtg vids ive upl. Yes there have been some takes used in documentaries but most takes not!
