for mm first out with marilyn monroe production produce this epic film and i be somewhat disappointed . but there be some moment that make the film worth watch . expectation be probably very high and from the outside this should have be a smashing success . the star wattage alone be a no brainer . in view the picture we all want what be miss . a little word call chemistry . the movie poster show laurence behind marilyn in a lusty clench pose and but that scenario be completely miss from this film . in watch it and the lust factor never really gel and it be glare . be it plausible that she or anybody could be sexually attract to this loud mouth oaf . no . sir larry over act through the film over and over to a point of total annoyance and the political plot line just get old fast . despite be a reportedly rude tyrant on set and i will give him credit for direct marilyn towards a solid gold performance . she be the very reason to watch this film . all of her moment with larry and that include represent get tipsy and mimic him and avert his disgusting pass and sing to him and later seduce him be all pure comedic genius . her subtle delivery and act style have improve 100 % since the early day of river of no return it lovely to see her portray a real woman who be warm and convincing and and with depth . no dumb blonde resides here . for me and marilyns best scene be at the coronation . she doesn not speak any dialog and just show emotion with facial expression . it be very touching and heartflt . it obvious that a lot of time and money be spend light marilyn for this film . her mature beauty be simply stun . the admirable royal dance sequence be also brilliantly choreograph and lushly stag . the set alone be outstanding . it very apparent that this be an expensive film to produce overall . location and co actor and cinema photography be all top of the line . this be a huge ambitious gamble for warner brother and mm production to make this collaboration . it be a first class production . for the record and when release in 1957 the film only re couped the cost to make and distibute it . it break even with very little profit . marilyn monroe production would disband soon after .
