Marilyn Monroe and Sir. Laurence Olivier for The Prince and the Showgirl (1957). Photos by Milton H. Greene.“I think Larry at his best is a great actor. It’s what you get up there on the screen – he was my choice [as the lead] because I felt there was something incongruous and it would make it interesting. But frankly, he wasn’t my choice for director – but he wanted to direct. Some have told me the film was not a financial success, but I am sure they’re wrong. It’s sure made money; why, I’m making money. It’s still making money. I’ve refused to sell it to television.” — Marilyn to George Barris in 1962. -- source link
