Product Description

Amazoh.co.uk Review
Let’s Make Love is a curious picture in many ways: Marilyn Monroe was the superstar, Yves Montand new to Hollywood, but she seems peripheral to the action and he's in almost every scene. Meanwhile director George Cukor, always happy with theatrical material, can't make the off-off-Broadway milieu come to believable life. In short, Let's Make Love lacks the sparkle promised by its talent roster, and for Monroe especially the bloom is off the rose. This 1960 film was her next to last, and she appears weary, although isolated moments have the old oomph (and she has a terrific romp through her first number, Cole Porter's "My Heart Belongs to Daddy"). Cameos by Milton Berle, Bing Crosby, and Gene Kelly increase the time-capsule feeling. The biggest failing is the lack of chemistry between Monroe and Montand, yet off-screen they had a romance during filming. A curious picture indeed.--Robert Horton, Amazon.com

Synopsis
A millionaire is out to destroy a show that makes fun of him, until he meets cast member Monroe. To get closer to her he joins the cast and hires Bing Crosby, Gene Kelly and Milton Berle (as themselves) to teach him the performing arts.

3.0 out of 5 stars A pleasant musical comedy, 11 Mar 2001
By A Customer
Unfortunately Monroe and Montard took this film title far too seriously. Lets Make Love is considered the least sucessful film Marilyn starred in, this despite the talents, passions and big names involved. This is probably due to the fact that Marilyn didn't want to do the film. The highlights are the songs, especially the opening number "My Heart Belongs to Daddy." sung by Marilyn. Altogether though a watchable film.
