Movie Review: Lets make love

Sunday, September 20, 2009
Synopsis: Billionaire Jean-Marc Clement learns that he is to be satirized in an off-Broadway revue. After going to the theater, he sees Amanda rehearsing the Cole Porter song "My Heart Belongs to Daddy," and by accident the director thinks him an actor suitable to play himself in the revue. Clement takes the part in order to see more of Amanda and plays along with the mistaken identity. Milton Berle, Gene Kelly, and Bing Crosby appear in cameo roles as themselves trying to teach Clement how to deliver jokes, dance, and sing, in order to win Amanda's heart.

Starring: Marilyn Monroe, Yves Montand, Tony Randall, and Frankie Vaughan
Directed by: George Cukor
U.S. Rating: Not Rated

If you are a Marilyn Monroe fan then this is a movie you'll love! Let's Make Love is in the top 3 of Marilyn Monroe movies, in my opinion. The story was not only charming but hilarious at times. Even the songs in this movie are amazing and catchy. I actually have a few of them on my iTunes! Honestly, if you like musicals this movie is a MUST SEE! Let's Make Love is in my top 10 favorite movies of all time.

What did I like from this movie?

1. All of the actors in this movie did a wonderful job! The movie is classic from the start and not just because Marilyn Monroe is in it
2. The song numbers are genius in my opinion. I doubt it is easy writing actual GOOD songs for musicals but this movie pulled it off in spades. Where else could you actually find a song about needed a song to sell??
3. Has a GREAT feel-good ending. What woman wouldn't want to dream about finding a billionaire that falls madly in love with her??

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. For this type of movie, I would say it is virtually flawless. Even some of the cheesy parts can be easily overlooked because of the time period in which it was made

I would rate this movie with a 4/5

  2. Ooh, I love Marilyn! But I haven't seen this - it sounds like it would be great. I'd watch her watch paint dry. :-D
