About the Item

Prince And The Showgirl (1957) Original US One Sheet (27 X 41 Inches) Original US One Sheet Marilyn's revered "sex appeal" is on full display in this film as she tries to seduce Olivier. In the original play, Monroe's part was English, not American, and was played by Vivien Leigh. Olivier, who also directed the film, wanted Leigh for the film part, but she was ill at the time. Monroe was available and very popular; so, Oliver offered her the part. They did not get along at all during the filming. Olivier was understandably perturbed by Marilyn's infamous "moodiness" and her total inability to arrive at the set on time. Still, the actress puts in a very credible and delightful performance that is far more memorable than Oliver's stiff and snobby Grand Duke.
