Gentlemen Prefer Blondes ( Les hommes préfèrent les blondes ) by Howard Hawks ( 1953 ) Cast Jane Russell : Dorothy Shaw Marilyn Monroe : Lorelei ...
If Marilyn Monroe’s whispery, sultry tones taught us anything, it’s that diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
You may have wondered where this famous phrase came from. Look no further than “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” a romp from 1953 that features the gorgeous Marilyn Monroe and the lovely Jane Russell as Lorelei Lee and Dorothy Shaw, respectively.
This darling duo woos and wows transcontinental crowds in their roles as lounge singers on a cruise ship bound to Paris. In their travels, the women plot to win over wealthy men on the ship with their wily ways, singing catchy songs and sashaying down aisles.
Monroe plays a shamelessly-adorable, diamond-loving gold-digger, while Russell plays a slightly sweeter, more down-to-earth gal.
Just as memorable, though less iconic than Monroe’s flowy white dress from 1955’s “The Seven Year Itch,” are the matching glittery red gowns with thigh-high, navel-low slits and the hot pink, gloved number she dons for the film’s title song performance.
