Review of The Prince and the Showgirl

Among all of Marilyn's films this is the best performance and although she is best remembered today by here brilliant performance as sugar cane in ( Some like it hot 1959) she is doing much better here, she gives us a very simple performance which is too hard to play because u have to be both simple and very real and that is the hardest style of acting. This was my the first film i saw for MM back to 2008 and it attracted me from the start till the end. The film is based on a play called ( The Sleeping Prince ) starring Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh and i think that it was back to 1953 anyway Marilyn bought the rights and played the part of Vivien. The production of the film was very difficult and there was a lot of tension between Sir Laurance and Marilyn because first they were from two different schools and second she was regularly failed to show up in the set and when does she never arrived on time not to mention the endless retakes , to know more a bout the production on this film you should see a documentary film called -The prince and the showgirl and me- which was made in which was made buy Colin Clark ( you can see it in YouTube) , and if u don't like documentary films u can watch a movie made in 2011 starring Michelle William called ( My Week with Marilyn). At the end yes Marilyn was difficult to work with but she delivered one of here best performance on screen and she was nominated for Best Foreign Actress in BAFTA Awards .
