The funny thing watching old movies: the men are usually skinnier than they are now (Clift, Stewart, Grant --they must have had 27 inch waists) and the women are usually heavier (though Bacall and Hepburn cut pretty modern figures)<BR/><BR/>Monroe's weight really fluctuates in this movie though. She looks her best in the first couple of scenes I think "running wild, lost control..." love it. She's so curvy and feminine. She gains a lot of weight somewhere between then and the "through with love" number though (hence all the modern "fat" comments --especially since she's wearing a tight sheer gown) but it's still more attractive than the stick/bobblehead look we see now <BR/><BR/>wasn't she actually pregnant when she filmed this?<BR/><BR/><B>crazycris</B> -thanks. i have to keep myself entertained in order to keep writing so much so "new" series are inevitable.NATHANIEL Rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.com
