  • This clip displays how Marilyn did have a normal voice in her early career, before she was trained to speak in her trademark breathy little girl's tone. Her singing voice here is actually pretty deep- when compared to clips from The Seven Year Itch and the Person To Person interview, it doesn't even sound like it could be the same person! Guess it shows how good of an actress she truly was- her evolution of becoming the legend she is now is amazing.

  • Legend.

  • i think that not only she looks beautiful but i also think that her personality her way is beautiful

  • @AWickedMind Actually her voice was higher here; she later lowered her singing voice to give it more sex appeal and senuality and to give her voice a richer tone because her natural voice was very high, as she does in her songs from the "River of No Return" and the other later ones.

  • the most gorgeous in every way..it just boggles the mind

  • @AWickedMind I like her natural voice. There's audio of her last interview for Life magazine elsewhere on YT where she speaks in her natural voice. She kind of sounds like Angie Dickinson.

  • marilyn was all of 21 when she shot this. this is like the last 12 minutes of norma jean still being present.

  • The hair AND the dress!!...GORGEOUS! what i wouldn't give to have this fashion today!!

  • @ytcarol I rather see these things,too.I think women lost heir delicasy.Their lady -like posture and even maybe their manners.So sad.....

  • See, this is from an original print, as Adele Jergens got top billing over Marilyn in the opening credits. When Marilyn became a star several years later, Columbia reissued the film and partially refilmed the opening title with Marilyn's name out front.
