Laurence Olivier is the Carpathian prince visiting England for the coronation of George V. Marilyn Monroe is Elsie Marina, an American actress doing a musical review at a nearby theater. When an old flame of the prince's turns out to be Elsie's boss at the theater, their paths cross--and Elsie's determined not to let them uncross. After the prince confirms her worst fear--that he's interested only in a quick seduction--she nonetheless finds herself falling for him. As his mother-in-law takes a shine to Elsie, she finds herself attending every official function of the coronation--to the chagrin of the prince and her jealous boss. The crusty prince must decide whether to let love into his duty-bound life, and Elsie must decide if happily-ever-after ever really comes true. Olivier shines in his dour, bumbling straight-man role, while Monroe is at her charming, luminous, naive best.

    If anything, the script and the way it's acted out by Monroe and Olivier is worth seeing this no-action film. It's 2 hours of pure fun and banter, with Monroe bugging the Prince by falling in love with him, or with Monroe's memorable performance in ...the Prince's study, drinking alcohol and getting buzzed while he's on the telephone, oblivious to her mocking him. Great film, and who would have thought that it real life Monroe detested Olivier?! Read more Less

    THIS IS MY FAVORITE MONROE FILM. SHE PLAYS GREAT AGAINST OLIVIER.
