What a beautiful collection, with each film splendidly remastered in glorious technicolor. Marilyn never looked more beautiful than in this bluray collection among splendid packaging. For me the gem of this collection is "River Of No Return" with Robert Mitchum. A film rarely show on television, and in it's wide screen edition. Even if you are a minor Marilyn Monroe fan, or want to see what made her a star, this collection is for you. Very well priced (when I bought it) for the quality of material you are getting.
For Marilyn fans, I'd say this is a must have.

Had researched this set, determined it was just the right selection of Marilyn films, and it was setting on a v “Wishlist” thru another retailer for a very long time... Having never caught it below $40, so snatched it up immediately at my local store for $24.99... Great set, great deal, only wished the physical stores consistently had a better selection of real classics more often

"Forever Marilyn" is a must for anyone who is a fan of her work. Beautifully packaged in a white case with a stunning photo of this legendary star, "Forever Marilyn" includes the following 7 movies: "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", "How to Marry a Millionaire", "River of No Return", "There's No Business Like Show Business", "The Seven Year Itch", "Some Like it Hot", and "The Misfits".

A nice packaging of some of Monroe's better films on Blu-Ray, from the favs Gentlemen Prefer Blondes to How To Marry A Millionaire to Bus Stop to the overblown There's No Business Like Show Business, plus Bus Stop, River of No Return and her final film, The Misfits. Most show Monroe at her best, but Show Business is so over-the-top with an overdone performance by Ethel Merman, and an awful musical arrangement of Alexander's Ragtime Band, plus a pretty soggy script, that it could easily be skipped and not missed.

I have watched several Marilyn's movie when I was young, but I did not get to see all of them. This collection has quite a few movies, and I am mostly impressed with her last movie - the misfits. Marilyn's performance is unbeatable even with today's standards.

I had a co-worker who was going to have a long weekend as a couch potato after surgery. This was perfect for her - she loves classic movies and for me - I didn't have to pick just one movie, I could giver her a choice of several movies.

Perfect set of Marilyn Monroe's best films - from comedy to drama, western to musical. Every emotion, every great song, every wonderful movie is here. And got it for a screamin' price! A must have for anyone who loves Marilyn.

I purchased this set of Marilyn Monroe movies as a gift, so I'm unable to write about the quality of this item. That said, I haven't heard any complaints. Some of her best films wrapped up and delivered in Blu-ray.

This collection would be worth getting for just several of the films on this collection. River of No Return is one of my favorite films of Marilyn and also Some like it Hot. Add 5 more and this a real steal of a deal.

I've always liked her movies and I've seen one of them before that is what made me get this set to watch her other films as well. if you like old movies this is a good set. its in color as well and it looks crisp.

One of my favorite Marilyn movies is contained in this collection, River of No Return. Filmed in CinemaScope and technicolor it has wonderful scenery and I always liked Robert Mitchum as a rough and ready kind of guy. There is only one Marilyn movie I really hoped would be part of this collection that is not here is Bus Stop. Certainly this collection is great, but the case that holds the movies in place is not desirable.

Excellent Blu ray versions of 7 of Marilyn's most popular movies. The price for this set is great considering you're getting 7 films with excellent video and audio. The cheapest way to collect her films.

Great range of movies that show her acting ability. One can see why men in that era fell in Love with the beautiful blonde! She certainly was one of the early movie stars!

I really enjoyed the restored movies in the collection. Some like it hot and The Misfits are not restored to the same level as the others. The packaging is really cheap and flimsy and does not protect the discs very well. I bought this for $19.99 on a great sale. So, it was a fantastic deal.
