So now after several weeks having previously watched My Week with Marilyn, I finally got to watch the movie that was showcased in that partial bio-pic: The Prince and the Showgirl. Laurence Olivier plays The Regent and Ms. Monroe played Elsie, the American stage performer who enchants him. To tell the truth, I thought the dialogue went a little fast for me to truly understand what was going on but as the picture kept going on, I did find some of each of the leading performances quite funny and charming especially Monroe's. And Dame Sybil Thorndike as The Queen Dowager was also quite amusing in her exchanges with Marilyn especially when Ms. Thorndike mistakenly thought she knew French! So on summary, I thought The Prince and the Showgirl pretty good as a romantic comedy of the time with Monroe at her most charming and Olivier's direction also taking it's own sweet time near the end when the coronation scenes were being depicted.
