Thoughts on every movie I've ever seen.

The Seven Year Itch (1955)

Directed by Billy Wilder

Starring Marilyn Monroe, Tom Ewell, Evelyn Keyes, Sonny Tufts

Author

Too theatrical, obvious this was a play. Not very funny or insightful.

Ewell has some physical ability, but his incessant monologues are annoying. He’s a poor man’s Jack Lemmon. Monroe is pretty cute but has some sort of speech impediment. It‚Äôs like she‚Äôs trying to sound like Elizabeth Taylor.

Whats the moral message here? That it‚Äôs OK to let a strange woman kiss you and stay at your place when you’re married?
