@sidrahsiddiqui haha... because when someone says "i mean business" there serious and her remark about the hat implies she cant be taken serious with that hat on. also has to do with fashion
@opheliaroxs17 "A letterman, in U.S. sports, performing arts or academics, is a high school or college student who has met a specified level of participation or performance on a varsity athletic team, marching band, or in other performance school-sponsored activities." from Wikipedia
When the athlete tells Lorelei that he's a "four letterman", she makes the connection with a "four-letter word", i.e. swearing, and takes offence.
The only problem in this movie is that the Malone guy isn't in Jane Russell's league. No way can I believe that fabulous dame would settle for this charisma sink.
Marilyn always lit up the screen--she was such a beautiful girl you couldn't take your eyes off of her. I have loved her in every movie--but this was the best one, because it also had Jane Russell! Thanks for posting,!
I read somewhere that during filming of this movie Jane would often call Marilyn "Blondie", and that when someone told Marilyn she wasn't the star of the movie she said, "Well, whatever I am I'm still the blonde."
lol when she was taking the film out of the pants that close up wasnt her hand, her nails are perfectly manicured, except for when the close up and they are short and un polished lol
Was it like, written in Marilyn Monroe's contract that she couldn't appear alongside any attractive men? It seems like all of the men in her movies are dog ugly.
Marilyn's figure in that brown and black check dress is so perfect she looks like a comic book character. The girls in the archie comics had figures like that and they were drawn to look that way. Cant get much more perfect than that can ya???!
Why do I feel like Marilyn Monroe would've been perfect to play Harley Quinn? I know they're from completely different periods but..she is a wonderful actress, definitely could've pulled it off in modern times.
@YurgesBitch i sort of agree, but then you think about it and her movies shouldn't be shown on basic cable, the more you watch her the more you think shes in another league "paper view type stuff"
On IMDb, the 'goofs' section suggests that her hands when she's taking the film were possibly not hers in the close-up. Her hands look a bit more slender and manicured in other shots, thought it's hard to see them clearly.
In US high schools and colleges you can 'letter' in a sport so if you are a 4 letter man it means you excelled at 4 sports (think in Grease when Danny letters in track) So Lorelei thinks he means he is a four letter man as in f-*-*k man
Exactly!I can't understand why people consider her stupid (and also think Marilyn had to be stupid because of the characters she played). She's nothing but!
@DuduTheFlapper Yes, you are right. This little cute voice was her acting voice. People from movie bussinnes wants her to do it. It was "cool" and sexy back then and she could do it very well, don't you think? By the way, your last sentence is beautiful. :) Yes, she was still Norma Jean, on screen Marilyn Monroe.
i still dont get it. whats with the four letter word ??? sos

magdamill25 3 years ago 28
That's right! Marilyn was an intelligent person . Moody and flimsy yes but certainly not stupid.
I read somewhere she had a deeper voice in real life than in her movies. She created a wonderful character and that's why she became an icon.
Deep inside her she always stayed Norma Jeane.

yeah its true listen to the way she sings diamonds, you never thought it was the same girl singing by the way she sounds in her interviews.
