After Monroe, there are no elves in the world

Monroe's canary show as always. Passionate, sexy, sweet-sounding, and smiling. However, the screenwriter of this film is quite reluctant. The male protagonist pretends to be a woman and is not recognized. Later, he pretends to be a man and is not recognized. This absurd screenwriting makes the actors and directors useless no matter how hard they try, and this film will inevitably be classified as mediocre in the long film.

However, I think most people will not pay attention to these details, just looking at the elf Monroe is enough. It was one of the last few films of her short life. It's unavoidable to feel sad when I think that the stunner will pass away in a few years from this film.

In fact, this film has many wonderful points, such as reflecting the gangster struggle in Chicago, which is the prelude to the gangster film in full swing in the future. In the future, the characters in the gangster movies are almost all of this image. And the public officials, who keep their eyes on the gang, are also an excellent addition to the film. I mean, this is not a gangster movie, but it raises the bar for gangster movies to a higher level.

The years are really long, and the three people of that year: Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, and Monroe. One by one passed away. If Monroe hadn't died that year, we'd end up with an old woman like Taylor. And this contrast is simply unforgivable. Monroe used her untimely death to solidify her beauty in our hearts!
