This Day in Indie History: Gentleman Prefer Blondes

by MovieMaker Staff | Published November 17, 2006

After completing the Cary Grant and Ginger Rogers comedy Monkey Business, Howard Hawks started shooting Gentleman Prefer Blondes in 1952. Starring Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe, the movie featured the iconic tune “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” and solidified Monroe’s fame in the film business.

Film Factoid: Though gentlemen preferred blondes in 1952, Jane Russell later would go on to star in Richard Sale’s 1955 Gentlemen Marry Brunettes.
