Description
💃💃Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell dazzle in the opening scene of 1953’s “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” directed by Howard Hawks. The "We're just two little girls from Little Rock ..." sequence featured the duo before the opening credits.
This was one of three 1953 breakout hits for Monroe, with “How to Marry a Millionaire” and “Niagara” also box office draws.
For Hawks, “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” is yet another hit in his diverse decades-long career, although he didn’t actually direct the musical numbers, according to interviews.
