These glamorous showgirls have everything a girl could want - except engagement rings! In a quest for true love, Lorelei (Marilyn Monroe) and her gold digger pal Dorothy (Jane Russell) set sail on a luxury-liner bound for France. But the pair hits rocky waters when a manipulative detective, an over-aged, over sexed millionaire (Charles Coburn) and the entire men's Olympic team try to put an anchor in their marriage-minded mischief. It's a wild and joyously funny ride across the Atlantic as our bathing beauties plan and plot a way to land their men. (official distributor synopsis)

If only Marilyn had played in the film, I probably wouldn't have enjoyed it as much, but since the captivating Jane Russell is also in it, I ended up liking the movie quite a bit. Marilyn was only to my liking when she sang, while Jane Russell was captivating throughout. Besides being beautiful, she also handled the acting exceptionally well, which really impressed me. The story is nicely theatrical.
