How to Marry a Millionaire
Dir: Jean Negulesco
1953
****
I was going to start my review by making comment that Betty Grable brings the comedy, Marilyn Monroe brings the beauty and that Lauren Bacall brings the performance but that really wouldn't be fair. All three are beautiful, all three bring brilliant performances and all three are funny, albeit in three very different ways. The script is witty and sharp, only heightened by the brilliant delivery. It's a classic, a bit dated but still fantastic.
