ABOUT THE FILMS

GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES, 1953, Disney, 91 min, Dir: Howard Hawks.

Complementary bombshells Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe wreak havoc on the male libido in this classic Howard Hawks farce of two nightclub singers set loose onboard a Paris-bound luxury liner. Jane and Marilyn show their gift for flawless comic timing in every scene – and their musical duets together, including “Two Little Girls From Little Rock” and “Bye Bye Baby,” are simply priceless.

FORMAT: DCP

 

MONKEY BUSINESS, 1952, Disney, 97 min, USA, Dir: Howard Hawks.

Marilyn Monroe, Cary Grant and Ginger Rogers star in this classic comedy about a chemist who discovers the secret of eternal youth. For years, Dr. Barnaby Fulton (Grant) has been working on a youth-restoring serum with little success – until the day a chimpanzee gets loose in the lab and accidentally concocts the exact formula Fulton has been searching for. The hilarity begins when, unbeknownst to anyone, the chimpanzee pours it into the office water cooler.
