Ladies Of The Chorus - Part 7

I present for the world 'Ladies Of The Chorus', Marilyn Monroe's first film where she was the star.

'Ladies Of The Chorus' is a musical that was released in 1948 by Columbia Pictures Corporation while Marilyn was at the tender age of 22. She had extensive singing lessons by one of Hollywood's best singing teachers and devoted all her time and energy to perfecting her role for the film. After this movie Marilyn would not play a lead role again until 1952 in 'Don't Bother To Knock' as Nell Forbes.

The plot of the film is as such: Former burlesque star May and her daughter Peggy dance in the chorus. When May has a fight with featured dancer Bubbles, Bubbles leaves the show and Peggy takes her place. When Peggy falls in love with wealthy Randy, May fears class differences may lead to misery. Marilyn sings "Ladies Of The Chorus", "Every Baby Needs a Da Da Daddy" and "Anyone Can See I Love You."

It is a charming movie. Nana Bryant and Adele Jergens are my two favourite actresses in the film, after Marilyn. They act superb and sing great. Look out for Nana Bryant reminding us that "You're Never Too Old" to do what you want to do :)

@funkymum21 My pleasure :). This is one of Marilyn's all time best. It didn't get a very positive reception in 1948 but now in 2010 all of Marilyn's fans can appreciate it for the wonderful film it is :)
