"Marilyn displays her sex appeal frankly — never slyly. It's foolish to try founding either a marriage or a movie career on sex attraction alone. But that's a conventional beginning, always successful if a girl can follow it up with the more profound qualities that win the permanent affections of her guy or her fans." —Hildegarde Johnson, columnist (Photoplay Magazine, 1953)

Amazing film. The dialogue is fast and witty.

Well, I meant to let you go, Hildy, but you know how it is. You never miss the water 'til the well runs dry.
