Synopsis

So are diamonds really a girl's best friend? That's what showgirl Lorelei (played by Marilyn Monroe) claims to believe in the most famous song from this great comedy-musical. Lorelei (the blonde) is already engaged to one millionaire - but can't resist flirting with another during a transatlantic cruise. Can her brunette friend Dorothy keep her out of trouble? The legendary Marilyn was at her best as the seemingly dumb but rather cunning Lorelei, and the film is a smart mix of sharp comedy and big musical numbers.
