20th was crazy to fire Marilyn Monroe who brought millions to that studio via Niagra,
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, How To Marry A Millionaire, Bus Stop, etc. Somethings Got To Give would have been a smash hit. Billy Wilder who fought with MM on Some Like It Hot also called her second only to Garbo in ability. Forever the greatest star
Marilyn had a career based solely on her looks and she knew it. Joan Crawford, Katherine Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman and Elizabeth Taylor had stunning beauty AND amazing talent as well..
@mctalks she's an effective comedienne...her style of sexy dumb blonde was emulated by countless actresses but none came close to her. Plus she sings and dances well. Those actresses you mentioned didn't have her talents. So which talents are more amazing then? Acting which could be learned. or singing which is God-given?
Joan Crawford looked like a man and was bisexual, Katie Hepburn spoke like a man, thought like a man but was Woman. Ingrid Bergman could not make her mind up and Liz Taylor gave good face over that short, big tittied body. None of them combined, through life or especially the camera lens, did what Monroe did.
@mctalks Marilyn was a work in progress. She had more than proved that she was a talented comedic actress. Although I do believe that her looks and dumb blonde image "at the time" limited the types of dramatic parts she could actually pulled of off believeably. I think if she had lived she could have gone on to bigger and better things and proved herself an adept dramatic actress as well.
Weird! She has been death 29 years before I was even born and still I feel coneccted to her and even kind of miss her! She was many things, but not a joke! The mystery around her death pisses me of! Hope she is an butterfly like she wantes to and people try to look at her beyond just her pretty face! But see her heart and Norma Jeane also!
i wonder if she be this famous if she's still alive. i noticed that when celebrities get old, we, the media, just "respect" them for what they did in the past. celebrities that die young become legends, icons, etc
@marilyn69monroe I believe this was before she sang for the Kennedy. Since the studio got furious at MM for claiming that she was unable to work yet went to sing 'Happy Birthday" for the Kennedy. Eventually they fired her. Don't know the exact date for Kennedy's birthday gala though.
@AngelicLove21 This was after JFK's birthday, (may 19th, while MM was born on June 1st), the Fox didn't prepare anything for her birthday because they were furious at her escape to NY to sing Happy Birthday Mr President, so even if you see Dino kissing her, the cake and candles and the little celebration were offered to her by the team on the set, the technicians, her dresser, her make-up girl, etc. Then she reported sick one week after and the Fox fired her, but finally had to take her back...
She was in agony this day...she knew she was about to be fired, and could not stop the behavior that led to it. When she saw these photos she said: "Look at my eyes, my eyes are dead."
Is that George Cukor with her around 2:56? I read that he made her work all day that day because she was sick on previous days.

The only exception is Lauran Bacall.
