I love seeing her play an intelligent, emotionally stable character. She was often typecast as a dumb blonde, and people thought that's how she really was. But she was actually very intelligent.
This is a charming scene, for many reasons. First, she's not totally glammed up as she usually was, so along with the spectacular outdoor background, her realistic and natural-looking clothes make her more down-to-earth. Second, she sings an innocent and simple song, very well. Third, she's interacting with a little boy instead of an adult man. All of this is very different from the more familiar Marilyn movie appearances.
I saw a scene from her final unfinished film (later made as "Move over darling" with Doris Day. In it she returns from.having been lost at sea for 5 years and meets her children, they not knowing who she is. Marilyn's interaction with the children is coming straight from the heart.
@@TheFashionforward5 I read a long time ago that she had a baby boy when she was 16 but had to give him up for adoption. It was in a magazine article in the days before the internet.
This to me was one of the most beautiful she's ever looked. The dolled up looks are pretty. But seeing her in more casual clothes, toned down makeup, and more natural expressions she looks and SOUNDS phenomenal. Her voice is so baleful and gentle.
She is really a great actress, I don't know why people say she was terrible at acting. Maybe she wasn't the best actress in the world, but definitely had talent! And her voice is amazing too, I just can't stop loving her, gosh. Rest in peace beauty. ❤
When you’re too beautiful, people lose their abilities to see your talent, hear your voice and think straight with sense... basically, they become stupid.
Jennifer Altan_ No, predators treat humans they don’t respect as prey, which is what many many males did to Marilyn. I certainly wouldn’t have “become stupid” and forgotten her humanity and talents because she’s beautiful. Most women wouldn’t.
@@Jiff321its weird being a woman sometimes, to be objectified majority of your life can make you feel like there are only certain things you can do and ways you can act. Trust me, I'm sure she didnt feel great about alot of things in her life. Sooo your comment even with the lol continues to place her in a light that wasn't true to her heart. Sleeping with people doesnt define who you are, and frankly the men should have stayed by their wife side instead of seeking Marilyn out, to objectify her.
It's totally understandable why she suffered so much: her whole career was reduced to her sexuality and people couldn't understand how much their behavior could affect her as a person. Possessed, sexualized and captivated by an industry who lead their employees to extensive hours of work with no peace and rest, nor respect. She was a talented and beautiful person.
I’m tryna figure out why folks STILL RECORDING THO 😳😳😳 This shyt is NUTS at this point straight up 🤦🏽♀️....Folks ask for their PRIVACY back and mutha fuckas still going AFTER they learned the TRUTH so tf the problem NOW....Like get off folks clit already damn...it’s like closing somebody in that’s tryna LIVE just like the same people who are LIVING....Shyt not gonna end well I can feel it bc I play a lot of games but I ain’t NEVER been one....Go bully somebody else seriously, I’m vindicated so move on damn 😐
She used her sexuality to start her entire career. Shouldn't be surprised people didn't take her seriously. And this is simply coming from a huge Monroe fan. She's incredible but the facts and the facts unfortunately.
@@brendanmorin9935 I never said she shouldn't. I'm an extremely sexually expressive woman myself but when you use it specifically to jumpstart your career, you're downgrading yourself to what you can offer men. It was highly un-feminist as everything about her career was sex-appeal to the male eye. Not surprising given the time period.
@@nette9836 But remember Marilyn was making a living for herself at a time when many woman didn't. She was an independent woman. Marilyn also started her own production company which was unusual in the 1950's. The thing is that 20th Century Fox saw her as a marketable sexpot and Marilyn wanted to succeed. It's not difficult to imagine that she felt elated by the attention and adoration of the fans after growing up with no real family and having been sent to live in an orphanage and then a series of foster homes. No one wanted to keep her and give her any stability or security. I'm sure the sexual abuse she experienced during that time also contributed to her feeling the her looks and body were all anyone wanted. But she worked hard on improving in acting and took it very seriously. In a few of her early roles Marilyn got to play against the sexy blonde type she was usually cast as. In Don't Bother to Knock, she played a character that is mentally disturbed. In Clash By Night, her character works in a cannery and rough houses with her boyfriend. Even her Paula character in How To Marry A Millionaire isn't a very sexual one. Marilyn's worst role was the popular The Seven Year Itch. Her character didn't even have a name and clearly she was highly exploited just as a sex symbol. I think Marilyn would have been much better off without being in that film. That film made it difficult for her to get different sorts of roles. But she did follow it with Bus Stop which was actually a big contrast. Sadly Marilyn was never able to play the parts she wanted.
@Dark Light you're so sick that you're replying to everyone on this video with the same stupid comment thinking that you're insulting a woman that died 60 years ago. Get a life stupid incel!
Dark light is one of the majority of typical men who keep getting rejected & dejected by women for good reasons & them come on TH-cam video comment sections to vomit their self fancied misogyny to feel like a perfect man, sucking blood out of women. Actually its a blessing that Monroe didn't have a male child...what if he would have turned out to be this Dark Knight guy..one pig not born one pig less in the world. Patriarchy ruined lives with misogyny, feminism is the only way out
It has been observed that no matter how a scene was lighted, Monroe had the quality of drawing all the light to herself. In her brief scenes here, surrounded by actors much more experienced, she is all we can look at. Do we see her through the prism of her legend? Perhaps not; those who saw the movie in 1950, when she was unknown, also singled her out www.rogerebert.com/reviews/great-movie-all-about-eve-1950
She was actually mimicking Betty Grable. There is an interview with Celeste Holm I believe her name is, and she said that marilyn was obsessed with Betty's facial expressions.
Yeah, but I'd say that is a wig she is wearing for that scene, though itdoesstill look good, allthe same. Fact is, she was not a natural platinum blonde. She is abottleblonde ie the peroxide bottle got a good work out to maintain that platinum shadeof pale blonde. Ifyou dye your hairblonde usingperocide fromyourdarker hair, like she had, you simply cannot grow it that long and healthy looking. It just all dries out, splits and breaks off. You have to have it short to look good. But, even if shecould have grown itthwt long, even constantly bleaching it blonde, it would have taken years to get it that long and lush if it was her own hair, not a wig.
@@annakev8088 nah you're weird you fucking whiteknight, it's called a compliment, too bad the world has brainwashed you into thinking you can't say anything about women
Kind of agree although its rumored that John Kennedy asked to be introduced to her with I'm guessing an idea of her immediate attraction to him and power... His only intention was to take advantage of her. She somehow also became involved with Robert. Marilyn wasn't a total loner, she had friends who took her in and let her live with them as family and she was close to her half-sister (same mother) ... yet it seems she felt so alone. Lastly, Marilyn had a power that the u.s. gov wasn't happy with her having, she was the most popular and therefore most influential person in the u.s. at that time, which made her 'dangerous' especially by today's standards, no entertainer is allowed to become single-handedly as influential these days ...
No they didn't. She wouldn't be known as one of the greatest actresses of all time if she was underestimated. This is the problem with modern people they do not understand how Hollywood actually worked back then. I'm sorry that you want to make Hollywood out to be some monoliths as if Hollywood has always been the same as it is now where it's about corrupt douchebags telling people how to make a movie. There is a reason why most of the older directors and producers and actors and actresses always come and say that they had more freedom back then than they do today because today you're actually told that you have to be a specific way it's why audience's hate modern movies.
@@EternalFlameOfGod what I mean in my comment is that she wasn't allowed to explore her talents in film hence why she created "Marilyn Monroe Productions" trying to break the typecasting of dumb blonde/damsel in distress role. and don't insult my intelligence please because I have studied Hollywood and its system and agree with you that modern movies compared to last centuries are dreadful in story telling and production and I don't see Hollywood as glamorous it makes hell look like the Palace of France all that fake-ness and behind the scenes abuse im glad to not be a celebrity in the modern world let alone the old one.
@@charlessoutherton8946 I agree that she definitely didn't want to play the dumb blonde character, but I would disagree with this idea that women back then ever really cared about whether they played the Damsel in distress or not. It's a modern phenomenon, only modern people say that women back then were complaining about not being able to play the hero. Women back then just wanted to tell good stories, Doris Day is famous for literally saying "I just want to make people laugh and cry like a good actress.". I do apologize if you feel like I insulted your intelligence. But there is absolutely a difference between old Hollywood and new Hollywood and it's not even close. Most old school actors and actresses had fun today people are depressed.
@@EternalFlameOfGod thats fine, sometimes comments can be misinterpreted but I also agree the massive difference. nowadays people are wanting to play the victim or the high vibing ego which is all empty energy that has no relevancy or relatability to the enjoyment of watching film/tv or creating nostalgic memories with stories worth telling.
@@charlessoutherton8946 I can't really ever watch Modern films. I prefer 40s-50s films. I do also like some 80s-90s and 00s but it depends. I think the worst 2 eras were the 60s-70s & 10s-20s.
Interesting Marilyn really learned the guitar cords and sings very pretty. I think she was a better singer than some people give her credit. The songs were limited in most of her comedy style movies but she has a lot of range and can hit high notes. I love her soft voice. I can imagine her doing a jazz/pop style album in the later 60s like Anne-Margret or Diana Dors did. She could do anything she was so talented, she always reminds me of Dolly Parton . God bless her.
@@Badfingerbabe777 i know who Diana Dors was. I thought you were a bit naive in your statement. Had she lived, her career was destined to expand. But it is what it is. Most movies back then were light hearted. The music reflects it. She would've been given more serious parts but singing and musicals are generally not serious movies. So again, this is all we have, but she did have some good tunes that I thought she showed a lot of talent singing in some movies
exactly you are spot on - I like Dolly Parton because of her style, her turbo tramp style and her talent, same goes for Ann- Margret - all this nonsense sexy girls have no talent - Dolly Parton even sings about Jesus and moves a whole gospel church!
Yes, she was pretty and had a few skillsbut Iwouldn't compareherto Dolly Parton because Dolly ismore than just a prettyface and petite pretty figure that camefrom a hard life and could ding and play. Msny prople don't realise it but Dolly Parton has written a lot of famous modernsongs that other famous modern singers sang as major hits. You justcannotcompare these two women. The only things they have incommon are being blonde, attractive,in showbiz and coming from humble poorbackgrounds. Marilynis the prettiest but I think Dollyis the more artisticallygifted one.
No matter what she's doing, singing, dancing, walking talking or posing, Marilyn never fail to leave me sitting speechless... Truly Hypnotizing. Thanks for posting this... '"💖"'
after the movie she said Robert mitchum was a gentlemen never tried anything with her never said anything dirty he was like a brother and Robert said I never would have guessed she could act like that shes the best actor I ever worked with he also said there was no pressure own this movie the director never got mad and told all of us to take your time enjoy yourself he said we all felt comfortable a matter of fact we finished the movie a week ahead of time because no pressure
@@Hithere-ek4qt I have included this movie in my DVD collection, so I really bothered to spend time to gather information on this film. You may please google the title -- wikipaedia -- production...................
There's this book I'm reading where some of the chapters talk about multiplying your God given talents and gifts I'm a big believer that while in your mother's womb her mom either had things spoken over her so whatever things that were spoken to her mom it resignated to Ms Norma Jean now she dropped out of high school so that may have held her back but back then the war was starting and from what I take she's working at some factory out in California I do believe also that everything happens for a reason Romans 8:38 All things work together for the good to those who are called according to his purpose people may read that and think what's this got to do with my career I believe we're shaped by the situation we experience we go through or face things happen for a reason while at times with Monroe you wonder why things like that happen to someone like her temptations were real for her so she had no structure surrounding her
Besides all of the other things about Marilyn, I've always loved the way she talks. She had a very unique voice. No one talked, or talks like Marilyn. She truly was one of a kind. And I wasn't even born when she made this film.
I saw this picture in 1954 when I was age 8! Even then, I knew that Marilyn Monroe was an unusually beautiful & unique actress! Years later, 1994, my wife & I went to Jasper, Canada, on a driving trip & went into the hotel where Robert Mitchum & Marilyn Monroe stayed while filming "The River of No Return"! After leaving the hotel, we saw the only "triple rainbow" that we ever saw in our lives, engulfing the entire town! That whole area is awesome & should not be missed!
This was great... I love marilyn with her country look. (She probably wouldnt agree because she wasnt like that) but she even made white sheets look elegant!
Old movies actress and actor acting were very professionally then today... I love Marilyn Monroe ❤️ i always keep my phone lock background and home background pic of Marilyn Monroe cuz i miss her. Marilyn Monroe is a part of world history
This is the first movie I saw as a 5 year old kid at the drive in back in the 50’s.Its been my favorite movie of all time.I know it’s just a B western but when I saw her up on that giant screen for the first time even as a kid I couldn’t believe how beautiful she was.I love her singing.I think the Hollywood studios missed out on her singing ability they were to busy trying to make her look like the dumb blonde.I wish she would have made a lot more records back in the 50’s.I really thought when she recorded Kiss from Niagara that it should have been big on the radio but the studio did not promote it.The good lord definitely broke the mold after he made her.There is no woman in Hollywood that has ever come close to her.Never will either.
Dam long hair intelligent role, They should have used this more. She’s gorgeous here, love the acting too. Sad Hollywood destroyed this look for another
Most people won’t come to understand the full depths and range of talent Marilyn or should I say Norma realy had.Rest in peace Normy we still love you.😔🙏🏻❤️
This is my favourite Marilyn Monroe film! Absolutely love the fact that she has long hair and love the fact she’s wearing jeans and shirt. I’m inspired by that look today. Marilyn ur soooo beautiful inside and out. ❤️💋.
My mother took me to see this movie when I was a little girl. It made a great impression on me. I kept singing the theme song about the river of no return while I reenacted her scenes in our basement. The Misfits with Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe is quite memorable. The scene where Marilyn Monroe bounces the rubber ball connected to the paddleboard was another scene I tried to reenact as a nine year old. I believe that was Clark Gable’s last movie. Mom also took me to see the memorable movie Niagara with Joseph Cotton and Marilyn Monroe. Thank you mom for introducing me to the world of cinema. Thank you Marilyn for your wonderful contribution to the arts.
She suits the denim cowgirl look so much :) She was a good actress and naturally pretty before fame ....she didnt need the eye lifts and the nose/jawline surgeries ...makes me sad whether she felt she needed them or was coerced into having them.
NeoScota Oh please! I hate the silly stories that biographers made up. Half the surgeries she supposedly had didn't even exist when she was alive! The x-rays someone produced saying it was proof of MM's, surgeries had another woman's name on them. There's literally NO PROOF she ever had any work done, only rumors... repeated again and again and again. Sigh.
@@whiteeaglewarrior Oh, you can "see" can you?! Thank you for your professional opinion on someone you've never met yet alone even examined close up! I thought someone in your profession would prefer EVIDENCE rather than salacious conjecture from gossipy biographers. Side by side her Norma Jean pics look the same as MM ones aside from make up, hair and lighting.
She could have been great at lots of things. This is 2020. Women are accomplishing all kinds of great things. I have never heard anyone say that a male actor would have been a great dad.
@@Michelle-pn9xt I'm not sure that is what they are saying, you may have taken an innocent comment out of context. It's well documented that Marilyn dreamed of becoming a mother and had several miscarriages. Of course, this was a movie and they are actors, but it seemed she had a very warm, friendly attitude towards the child. Jermecia was simply saying it's too bad that Marilyn didn't get her wish of becoming a mother because she seems to do well with children. I am sure if it was a male actor who was well documented of wanting children, but it didn't happen, and then that actor passed away, people may indeed say the same. No one is taking away from her accomplishments.
Absolutely wonderful in every way, this woman; has continued to teach us long beyond her life, just too smart too big too good too hurt for the rest of us. How can people admire someone like Elizabeth Taylor, when there's Marilyn Monroe in mind.
I'm crying watching this 😔 She is really an icon and inspiration to all women. Everyone want to be like her, but no one can be as beautiful and sexy like her
@Marilyn Cwik Excellent recommendations, but you forgot Niagara. Rose Loomis is one of the great screen characters largely because of the way Marilyn acted her.
@Marilyn Cwik I love How To Marry A Millionaire as well. Marilyn had wonderful comedic timing as Paula. I feel like The Seven Year Itch didn't give Marilyn anything to do, the character was only there to be lusted over by the older married guy.
Singling out a favorite movie is tough. She was so good. I feel that comedy is her Gift. She is a truly funny lady. So I must say that she Owned the part of Lorelei to absolute perfection. No One could have done that better, No One. I like her movies, even the ones that did not do great at the box office; she still shines!!!
Marylyn looks and sounds so sweet playing the guitar. It is wonderful footage of her, when times were more simple and life was so wonderful, so sad that all changed for her.
The first part was like a 73 questions by Vogue.
OMG accurate 😂😂😂😂😂😂
LOL true!
Lol underrated
Lol
HAAHAHHAHAA YES
I love seeing her play an intelligent, emotionally stable character. She was often typecast as a dumb blonde, and people thought that's how she really was. But she was actually very intelligent.
She looked great with long hair
She looks in every cut short or long cause she had thick curly hair
She certainly did!!!
Even though those were hair extensions, your right she really good this way.
Looked like hair extensions. I felt like I could see her shorter do thru it
Prefer her in short hair though🙂🙂

Angie Taylor my thoughts exactly!
I thought her accent sounded almost Australian...
Maybe not.
Angie Taylor what was her real voice was like?
rhoads' girl - She used that “sexy” whisper voice because she had a stutter. It was her own technique she used to mask it and speak more fluently.
She lights up around children. I really feel a child of her own would have made her wayyyy less depressed. Poor thing!
Tomorrow is Marilyn's 93rd birthday. In all those years, no woman was made like her.

There is a reason why most of the older directors and producers and actors and actresses always come and say that they had more freedom back then than they do today because today you're actually told that you have to be a specific way it's why audience's hate modern movies.
@@EternalFlameOfGod what I mean in my comment is that she wasn't allowed to explore her talents in film hence why she created "Marilyn Monroe Productions" trying to break the typecasting of dumb blonde/damsel in distress role. and don't insult my intelligence please because I have studied Hollywood and its system and agree with you that modern movies compared to last centuries are dreadful in story telling and production and I don't see Hollywood as glamorous it makes hell look like the Palace of France all that fake-ness and behind the scenes abuse im glad to not be a celebrity in the modern world let alone the old one.
@@charlessoutherton8946 I agree that she definitely didn't want to play the dumb blonde character, but I would disagree with this idea that women back then ever really cared about whether they played the Damsel in distress or not. It's a modern phenomenon, only modern people say that women back then were complaining about not being able to play the hero. Women back then just wanted to tell good stories, Doris Day is famous for literally saying "I just want to make people laugh and cry like a good actress.". I do apologize if you feel like I insulted your intelligence. But there is absolutely a difference between old Hollywood and new Hollywood and it's not even close. Most old school actors and actresses had fun today people are depressed.
@@EternalFlameOfGod thats fine, sometimes comments can be misinterpreted but I also agree the massive difference. nowadays people are wanting to play the victim or the high vibing ego which is all empty energy that has no relevancy or relatability to the enjoyment of watching film/tv or creating nostalgic memories with stories worth telling.
@@charlessoutherton8946 I can't really ever watch Modern films. I prefer 40s-50s films. I do also like some 80s-90s and 00s but it depends. I think the worst 2 eras were the 60s-70s & 10s-20s.
Marilyn with long hair & jeans looks stunning! 😻
Good grief, she's actually playing that guitar. Her finger placements are correct.
I’ve heard rumors she insisted on learning the part to make it as authentic as possible. Don’t know if it’s true or not but still cool to think about
true, i play guitar too, wow didn't lnow she knew it
dynodish she was multitalented. Definitely an underestimated actress of her time.
She’s so talented
Her bass line with her thumb and chord placements are bang on so shes definitely playing the tune that matches the soundtrack.
Perfect landscape for a perfect beauty!!! Immortal
Interesting Marilyn really learned the guitar cords and sings very pretty. I think she was a better singer than some people give her credit. The songs were limited in most of her comedy style movies but she has a lot of range and can hit high notes. I love her soft voice. I can imagine her doing a jazz/pop style album in the later 60s like Anne-Margret or Diana Dors did. She could do anything she was so talented, she always reminds me of Dolly Parton . God bless her.
Over 30 songs total in her movies. How's that limited?
@@Badfingerbabe777 i know who Diana Dors was. I thought you were a bit naive in your statement. Had she lived, her career was destined to expand. But it is what it is. Most movies back then were light hearted. The music reflects it. She would've been given more serious parts but singing and musicals are generally not serious movies. So again, this is all we have, but she did have some good tunes that I thought she showed a lot of talent singing in some movies
So that's really her singing? She sounds amazing!!
exactly you are spot on - I like Dolly Parton because of her style, her turbo tramp style and her talent, same goes for Ann- Margret - all this nonsense sexy girls have no talent - Dolly Parton even sings about Jesus and moves a whole gospel church!
Yes, she was pretty and had a few skillsbut Iwouldn't compareherto Dolly Parton because Dolly ismore than just a prettyface and petite pretty figure that camefrom a hard life and could ding and play. Msny prople don't realise it but Dolly Parton has written a lot of famous modernsongs that other famous modern singers sang as major hits. You justcannotcompare these two women. The only things they have incommon are being blonde, attractive,in showbiz and coming from humble poorbackgrounds. Marilynis the prettiest but I think Dollyis the more artisticallygifted one.
Wow is that her playing the guitar! Marilyn is such a legend!
She Really can Sing, sounds Lovely 😍😘🌷💘
Some like it hot
And play the guitar which is more important.
No matter what she's doing, singing, dancing, walking talking or posing, Marilyn never fail to leave me sitting speechless... Truly Hypnotizing.
Thanks for posting this... '"💖"'
I love her jazzy voice. Nice to see her in jeans.
This is honestly her best look of all time
Was that fake hair?
after the movie she said Robert mitchum was a gentlemen never tried anything with her never said anything dirty he was like a brother and Robert said I never would have guessed she could act like that shes the best actor I ever worked with he also said there was no pressure own this movie the director never got mad and told all of us to take your time enjoy yourself he said we all felt comfortable a matter of fact we finished the movie a week ahead of time because no pressure
During the shoot of this movie, these two persons were constantly in quarrel with each other............
Commas would have been great
@@tvoommen4688 Where do you get that information? Sounds like gossip.
@@Hithere-ek4qt I have included this movie in my DVD collection, so I really bothered to spend time to gather information on this film. You may please google the title -- wikipaedia -- production...................
o casuísta you mean periods but go off.
Can we all just talk about how beautiful she looks with long hair.
What an amazing voice. I loved her hair long. Xxxx
I love her hair long to😍💖💖💖
Such a soothing voice.
It's like she came back to the 1950s from the 1980s with her hairstyle, lol.
142horizon If you observe the comment, you would see that it’s not that serious. Why are you so mad?
142horizon your life must be terrible
@@cybramir :
- A highly inaccurate assessment my friend. My life is wonderful!
142horizon Happy Father’s Day 🙂
@@bobbishmax62 :
Thank you for the tremendous (though highly misplaced) compliments...
None of the above, and sorry you feel that way.
Definitely playing the guitar. She had so many talents.
There's this book I'm reading where some of the chapters talk about multiplying your God given talents and gifts I'm a big believer that while in your mother's womb her mom either had things spoken over her so whatever things that were spoken to her mom it resignated to Ms Norma Jean now she dropped out of high school so that may have held her back but back then the war was starting and from what I take she's working at some factory out in California I do believe also that everything happens for a reason Romans 8:38 All things work together for the good to those who are called according to his purpose people may read that and think what's this got to do with my career I believe we're shaped by the situation we experience we go through or face things happen for a reason while at times with Monroe you wonder why things like that happen to someone like her temptations were real for her so she had no structure surrounding her
Besides all of the other things about Marilyn, I've always loved the way she talks. She had a very unique voice. No one talked, or talks like Marilyn. She truly was one of a kind. And I wasn't even born when she made this film.
@Griffith Williams what do u mean?
So, you were not born when this was made. What is your point.? Most people have seen movies that were made before they were born. No big deal.
Michelle You seem like a nice person.
She doesn’t get enough credit. She’s not just a pretty face.
Most beautiful actress that ever lived
NooMax4ever STFU
Not just actress, woman... Although I think that others surpass her.
@@yevgeniyzharinov7473 not
Beautiful angel that’s what you are.
Dream lightly and Sleep well Marilyn Monroe
You Will Be Forever In Our Hearts 🕯🕊
Marilyn's voice and playing guitar was sweet...💙💜💜💜
Nicole N. She never played guitar she never could
But her voice was very nice
U M It was a very simple set of chords and easy strumming...😉
@@um9272 well, i was watchin her fingers and she was playin the right notes!
U M she can
ronny raygunz Yes! 🤗
She looked beautiful with long hair.
There's nothing Marilyn couldn't do love her ❤
@@lillionaire ...or is it really, that married men couldn't stay away from her, or other women, or men, or even chil.... ...need I continue???
Agree Married men chased her
Marilyn Monroe是個了不起的藝術家～💗 清唱就很好聽了啊～👏
Happy Birthday Marilyn! 6-1-1926 💋
She has the voice of an angel my god
Wow! I’m speechless! She was beyond gorgeous 😘♥️😍
Not bad yourself.
Marvin Lewis awwwee thank you! You’re very kind 💕
帰らざる河は、曲が素晴らしいこととともに、マリリンの魅力が非常に良く出ている作品と思います、。子供好きで優しいマリリンさんの素顔が現われているような場面の動画ですね。
There's just something so captivating about her nobody has that now a days love you Marilyn 😍♥️😔
MK Bunny Couldn't agree more. Great comment.
Love her here. She seems more real and down to earth. Beautiful voice too!!!
The mother wS stark raving mad. You think she should have stayed with a lunatic? 🤔
Legend M.M. is so beautiful with long hair too. Love this movie too 💖💞🦋🌹
💖💖💖
I saw this picture in 1954 when I was age 8! Even then, I knew that Marilyn Monroe was an unusually beautiful & unique actress! Years later, 1994, my wife & I went to Jasper,
Canada, on a driving trip & went into the hotel where Robert Mitchum & Marilyn Monroe stayed while filming "The River of No Return"! After leaving the hotel, we saw the only "triple
rainbow" that we ever saw in our lives, engulfing the entire town! That whole area is awesome & should not be missed!
She’s just so incredible. So special and unique. Such a beauty and talent. Love her forever ❤️
5:35 just jaw dropping and unbelievably beautiful! The background, cinematography, music score, and acting is quite haunting and gorgeous!
This was great... I love marilyn with her country look. (She probably wouldnt agree because she wasnt like that) but she even made white sheets look elegant!
Or a potatoe sack.
I've seen her wearing medical scrubs with undone hsir, no makeup, bare feet etc. and she still looked stunningly gorgeous.
Shes so gorgeous and good voice .
love her acting here!!
Old movies actress and actor acting were very professionally then today... I love Marilyn Monroe ❤️ i always keep my phone lock background and home background pic of Marilyn Monroe cuz i miss her. Marilyn Monroe is a part of world history
Marilyn was awesome here. Just love her!
She was so beautiful. One of my favorite actresses and someone I've always loved. This is always how I like to remember her.
This is the first movie I saw as a 5 year old kid at the drive in back in the 50’s.Its been my favorite movie of all time.I know it’s just a B western but when I saw her up on that giant screen for the first time even as a kid I couldn’t believe how beautiful she was.I love her singing.I think the Hollywood studios missed out on her singing ability they were to busy trying to make her look like the dumb blonde.I wish she would have made a lot more records back in the 50’s.I really thought when she recorded Kiss from Niagara that it should have been big on the radio but the studio did not promote it.The good lord definitely broke the mold after he made her.There is no woman in Hollywood that has ever come close to her.Never will either.
Great story. There will never be the likes of Marilyn in cinema ever again. She is a True movie legend.
Dam long hair intelligent role,
They should have used this more.
She’s gorgeous here, love the acting too.
Sad Hollywood destroyed this look for another
Most people won’t come to understand the full depths and range of talent Marilyn or should I say Norma realy had.Rest in peace Normy we still love you.😔🙏🏻❤️
She legally changed her name to Marilyn Monroe on February 23rd, 1956, so I guess she ended up identifying more as Marilyn Monroe.
wow shes amazing!!!! beautiful!!!!
She looks gorgeous !
I love Marilyn Monroe and im a big fan of Marilyn Monroe period baby
Yeah!♡
Marilyn was wonderful in this movie. Actually in any movie. All woman right there.
shes just an angel...a true angel. talented, smart, nice. perfect
This is my favourite Marilyn Monroe film! Absolutely love the fact that she has long hair and love the fact she’s wearing jeans and shirt. I’m inspired by that look today. Marilyn ur soooo beautiful inside and out. ❤️💋.
So beautiful... She was an angel! 😢❤
'Beauty is only skin deep'? She was beauty to the bone!
Voice of an angel
My mother took me to see this movie when I was a little girl. It made a great impression on me. I kept singing the theme song about the river of no return while I reenacted her scenes in our basement. The Misfits with Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe is quite memorable. The scene where Marilyn Monroe bounces the rubber ball connected to the paddleboard was another scene I tried to reenact as a nine year old. I believe that was Clark Gable’s last movie. Mom also took me to see the memorable movie Niagara with Joseph Cotton and Marilyn Monroe. Thank you mom for introducing me to the world of cinema. Thank you Marilyn for your wonderful contribution to the arts.
She is very natural here!
😍💗She was such a tender, loving and fragile soul.
I love her acting here.
What about her singing?
jeez, how beautiful is that, doesn't even seem real
She suits the denim cowgirl look so much :) She was a good actress and naturally pretty before fame ....she didnt need the eye lifts and the nose/jawline surgeries ...makes me sad whether she felt she needed them or was coerced into having them.
WeAreAllNeo Marilyn never had eye lifts or jawline surgeries, just her nose and chin. And she was naturally beautiful
this movie was shot after those thought...
NeoScota Oh please! I hate the silly stories that biographers made up. Half the surgeries she supposedly had didn't even exist when she was alive! The x-rays someone produced saying it was proof of MM's, surgeries had another woman's name on them. There's literally NO PROOF she ever had any work done, only rumors... repeated again and again and again. Sigh.
@@Father-Nature I was a nurse in surgery and theatres, and can see she had work done. No doubt put under pressure from the film bosses.
@@whiteeaglewarrior Oh, you can "see" can you?! Thank you for your professional opinion on someone you've never met yet alone even examined close up! I thought someone in your profession would prefer EVIDENCE rather than salacious conjecture from gossipy biographers. Side by side her Norma Jean pics look the same as MM ones aside from make up, hair and lighting.
NOW i get why my grandfather loved her so much
Her singing was amazing here!!!
She's really so talented.
Not only beautiful, but she can act ,danse and sing with sweet voice.
And play guitar 😙😍
This is my favorite Marilyn Monroe movie.
Gorgeous marilyn 💐
She would have made an excellent mother. Gone 2 soon....
You never know, she may have been a great mom...especially because of her troubled childhood was difficult.
Women can be parents, but they can do other things too,
There's compelling arguments for both sides. But no one is perfect. I just wish she had a shot.
She could have been great at lots of things. This is 2020. Women are accomplishing all kinds of great things. I have never heard anyone say that a male actor would have been a great dad.
@@Michelle-pn9xt I'm not sure that is what they are saying, you may have taken an innocent comment out of context. It's well documented that Marilyn dreamed of becoming a mother and had several miscarriages. Of course, this was a movie and they are actors, but it seemed she had a very warm, friendly attitude towards the child. Jermecia was simply saying it's too bad that Marilyn didn't get her wish of becoming a mother because she seems to do well with children. I am sure if it was a male actor who was well documented of wanting children, but it didn't happen, and then that actor passed away, people may indeed say the same. No one is taking away from her accomplishments.
Absolutely wonderful in every way, this woman; has continued to teach us long beyond her life, just too smart too big too good too hurt for the rest of us. How can people admire someone like Elizabeth Taylor, when there's Marilyn Monroe in mind.
Happy Birthday Marilyn. That was just fantastic.
I never even knew she sang or played a guitar! Well I like it!😃👍
I'm crying watching this 😔
She is really an icon and inspiration to all women. Everyone want to be like her, but no one can be as beautiful and sexy like her
She was amazing! My god blessed the big screen with this angel!
She was beautiful in this movie but The Seven Year Itch will always be my favorite😍
@Marilyn Cwik Excellent recommendations, but you forgot Niagara. Rose Loomis is one of the great screen characters largely because of the way Marilyn acted her.
@Marilyn Cwik I love How To Marry A Millionaire as well. Marilyn had wonderful comedic timing as Paula. I feel like The Seven Year Itch didn't give Marilyn anything to do, the character was only there to be lusted over by the older married guy.
Singling out a favorite movie is tough. She was so good. I feel that comedy is her Gift. She is a truly funny lady. So I must say that she Owned the part of Lorelei to absolute perfection. No One could have done that better, No One. I like her movies, even the ones that did not do great at the box office; she still shines!!!
I have to say.... Marilyn.... never paid too much attention to her.... but she really was quite spectacular actually
Never seen any one looked like her she had unique feminine beauty person and beautiful rounded forhead and thick curley
Marylyn looks and sounds so sweet playing the guitar. It is wonderful footage of her, when times were more simple and life was so wonderful, so sad that all changed for her.
She makes the gorgeous mountains at the background look ugly 😂🔥
Omg,you are right!
Is it a background, I guess so cause the trees are not moving.
@@princ8812 It was filmed in Alberta. It's real.
Avitius Rufinus Love this comment!
The beauty, I could look at her all day...
She was a stunningly beautiful woman.
Thanks for uploading one of my favourite movies she's sensational lover her performing this kids song
That soundtrack really got to my soul!
