Star of the Month: Marilyn Monroe (100th Birthday)
TCM, beginning at 8pm
Catch a Classic!
On the 100th anniversary of Norma Jeane’s birth, Elton John’s words about the luminous, incomparable Marilyn Monroe — whose “candle burned out long before [her] legend ever did” — couldn’t be more true. More than six decades after her death, the complex and enigmatic Monroe remains etched in the global consciousness. TCM’s monthlong celebration begins with 1953’s Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, where Monroe’s indelible, career-defining performance of “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” cemented her as a superstar. In How to Marry a Millionaire, released later that year, Monroe’s master class in physical comedy while playing the nearsighted Pola Debevoise (who wouldn’t wear glasses because she thought they would turn away men) stole the show from Betty Grable and Lauren Bacall. Next up is 1952’s Monkey Business, where Monroe held her own against another star, Ginger Rogers, as secretary Lois Laurel, the object of Dr. Barnaby Fulton’s (Cary Grant) desires, with Monroe’s sharp comedic timing matching her radiant charm. The night’s final film, 1948’s Ladies of the Chorus, features Monroe’s first onscreen singing performance, offering the world a glimpse of the vocal talent and melodic grace that would soon set Hollywood ablaze.
