Summary: SHE AIMS TO PLEASE
Review: I have just made a new June Haver movie running 100 feet in length. In a delightful change of pace June goes shopping at a grocery store. You will see her pushing a shopping cart around, and I know you will be pleased when she stands on her toes and reaches for a can on the top shelf. June wears a brown silk dress, gloves and carries a black patent-leather purse. -- Also available, Marilyn Monroe army uniform photos (2 poses).

Summary: "This is anything goes place."
Review: I scanned through most of this movie to dredge it for the scenes with Marilyn Monroe, but I was able to follow it. The wife (June Haver) of a soldier uses the pay he sends back to buy a broken-down apartment house and moves into the basement. She doesn't know it, but she got the place cheap because the wiring's no good. Her husband comes back (they've been married for 3 years but haven't seen each other for 2 1/2 years) and they settle down to dealing with the human garbage that lives in this place. (I don't know about you, but I don't need to see a movie about life in an apartment building.) The city inspector shows up and tells them that they've got to replace the wiring LIKE NOW because the building can burn down any minute, but then he gives them a 15 day extension. They get some estimates (this part of the movie is a real emotional roller-coaster ride) but they don't have the money, so our good land-lady (June Haver) puts the place up for sale and tries to unload it on somebody else, but she can't find anyone as stupid as she was. Meanwhile a con-man who specializes in ripping off lonely women moves in and gives them 800 (obviously hot) dollars to fix the wiring. This guy seems to be conning an elderly woman who lives in the building, but he's actually fallen in love with her and wants to turn over a new leaf. However, the FBI catches up with him and he gets sent to prison for 18 months. The ex-soldier is a writer and he writes the con-man's best-selling memoirs, making a fortune so he and his wife can pretty up the apartment-house and make it the nicest one on the block. Furthermore, the con-man moves back in, marries the elderly woman, and they have twins (I'm not joking.) Now I have to say that the way this movie should have ended is: the young couple fix the wiring, sell this hell-hole, move into some place where they can get some privacy, and THEY have twins and not some elderly couple that are probably going to be dead before the kids are in junior highschool. Anyway, I highly recommend the movie. June Haver is not exactly hard on the eyes and the four (especially the first two) scenes with Marilyn Monroe are incredible.

Summary: The Boy With The Golden Arm
Review: Its the start of spring training and Dallas is missing its rookie quarterback. An irate Coach Salinas has scoured the locker room, the weight room and the scorching playing field; but the man is drawing a blank. The kid with the million dollar arm is nowhere to be found.
Cut to: Exterior of a silver 1950s era trailer in the middle of nowhere. Driving guitar music on the soundtrack now. Cut to: Interior of the trailer. Our quarterback (Mark Wahlberg) is popping the cork off a bottle of champagne, spraying it all over a nameless floozie in a pink string bikini, laughing uproariously. The floozie hoses Wahlberg down with a bottle of her own. Why the string bikini? Come on, folks. This is a Disney picture, after all.

Summary: Pure Fay
Review: Not a Frank Fay fan? You will be after you've seen this movie 10 times. Fay plays an elderly con-man who specializes in ripping off elderly women. I don't know about you, but this is something I can really sink my teeth into. You only get to see him rip off one woman for 12,000 dollars, but he's supposed to have defrauded about 40 women for about half a million (in 1946 terms). Pretty good. One thing I don't get though, if he's so loaded why did he move into the Scotts' dump? Anyway, I was hoping that he'd rip off everyone in the building, but instead he falls in love with an old widow in there, marries her, and to put the icing on the cake impregnates her. So I guess it's a story of redemption. Highly recommended.

Summary: Adorable
Review: Some films aren't really 5 stars, but because of their charm and actors, you make an exception. Monroe shines in this cute little movie. I would say you need to be a true Monroe fan to really appreciate this one. It has a simple somewhat slow plot, but gee who can resist a black and white with her in it?

Summary: Alright
Review: Story about a young married couple who become landlords to an apartment building full of interesting tennants - including Marilyn Monroe (as Roberta). Marilyn is beautiful, funny, and charming as the "sex symbol" of the house. This is a cute romantic comedy - a sweet, simple movie about love, money, and trust. Would you trust your husband living next door to sexy Marilyn Monroe??

Summary: Lundigan Rocks Hard
Review: William Lundigan dominates this movie like "the obelisk in the town square on which all roads converge." Steeled in the fires of WW2, Lundigan returns home to fight new battles: managing a run-down apartment building and putting a firm, and steeled, hand to his wife (June Haver). You'll see him fix the plumbing, fix the wiring, clear out the back-yard, collect over-due rent, and more, all this like the play of lightning. Then you'll see him throw his wife down (June Haver) on one of their single beds and MAKE her forget that they're on the verge of total ruin. Lundigan: a man of action, a man of love.
