Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) ***

Marilyn Monroe plays a smart-but-acting-dumb blonde whose eyes sparkle every time she sees a diamond or a tiara. Jane Russell plays her brunette friend who's slightly more romantic (i.e. naive) when it comes to men. Songs: 

"Two Little Girls From Little Rock" ** 
"Bye Bye Baby" ** 
"Ain't There Anyone Here For Love" * 
"When Love Goes Wrong" ** 
"Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" ***
