    What movie is this from? I didn't know Marilyn and Dan Dailey appeared in a film together before There's No Business Like Show Business.

      This clip is from the 1950 Western musical comedy movie 'A Ticket to Tomahawk'. Dan Dailey and Anne Baxter had starring roles. This is one of Marilyn's earliest roles, Josh.

    A curio. Monroe does not stand out, but she never became a proficient dancer.

      A definite 'curio' Esmee. I'm not sure Monroe was a proficient actor either. Her allure was in her glamour and seductive personality. I agree. ....She is just one of the chorus girls here.

      @@MinstrelSurfer I admit to being a non-admirer of Monroe, and I detest the creepy male cult that grew up round her, epitomized by Norman Mailer's yucky potboiler. Like Rita Hayworth before her, she suffered from men inscribing their fantasies on her: sex kitten/ goddess, aspiring intellectual, tragic victim, Camelot courtesane. Unlike Hayworth, a superb dancer, Marilyn was good for wiggling, giggling, breathy whispering, deadpan stooging against men coming on to her and not a lot else.
      Her appearance in earlier days was coarse-grained, and the later 'aethereal' quality lauded by her necrophiliac fandom to me smacks ( pun) of 'heroin chic'. I find a comedienne such as Judy Holliday- or Monroe's obvious model, Jean Harlow- more forceful, and a classical type such as Kim Novak more beautiful. But the 1950s was a dry spell for female stars, and Marilyn has been burdened with more acclaim than a cold appraisal of her mostly underwhelming movies invites. I prefer 'symbols' of this and to act as well, or at least do something clever. Marilyn was literally a poseuse.
