Film Screening: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes

Event Description

70th Anniversary!

Showgirls Lorelei Lee (Marylin Munroe) and Dorothy Shaw (Jane Russell) travel to Paris, pursued by a private detective hired by the suspicious father of Lorelei’s fiancé, and many other doting admirers. Howard Hawks’ eye-catching comedy sees Munroe at the height of her talents. An exemplar of ravishing Technicolor cinematography, extravagant mid-century haute-couture costumes, and impeccable production numbers. A winningly racy sensibility lights up each scene.”—The Guardian
