Great classic film about a delusional married man named Richard (Tom Ewell) who has an internal struggle with a ditzy blond toothpaste model (Marilyn Monroe) while his wife & child are away for the summer. While this movie is famous for the Monroe dress being blown upwards by a draft scene; the real treat is the great writing & performances between these two. Richard's imagination, desire, and over-analyzing nature blends wonderfully with Monroe's simple desire to stay cool in the hot Summer.

This shows Marilyn at her finest.. sadness ditzy funny smart etc... Overall a classic movie

An all time fav. Marilyn is so charming as "the girl"
