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 was playing there, I probably wouldn't enjoy it as much, but since the captivating Jane Russell is also there, I quite liked the movie in the end. Marilyn was only enjoyable to me when she was singing, but Jane Russell was captivating throughout. Other than being beautiful and looking good, she also did a great job acting, which I was quite amazed by. The story is a nice theatricality.
