| This is the most popular film associated with Marilyn. The film was originally to go to Betty Grable and she wanted it. But it was 1952 and Marilyn was becoming hot. Between the nude calendar and the film Niagara she was a rising blonde. Grable on the other hand was waning. It was time for a younger more beautiful blonde so they signed Marilyn. |
