ABOUT GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES
1953 | DCP |USA | D: Howard Hawks

Friends and artistic collaborators Dorothy Shaw (Jane Russell) and Lorelei Lee (Marilyn Monroe) search for love and a sugar daddy (respectively) on a transatlantic liner.

Over 70 years on, this beloved musical still sparkles with old Hollywood glamour, witty dialogue, and the inimitable ‘Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend.’

‘Those two faces are incredible in ­juxtaposition: Russell is worldly, amused, intensely in touch: Monroe is sublimely unfocused and ­beatific. A joy.’ – The Guardian
