Marilyn was not an outstanding performer but as an actress, was equipped with a particular magnetism and its contribution to several memorable films was essential. Films such as Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (Gentlemen prefer blondes, 1953), Howard Hawks, or Some Like It Hot (Some Like It Hot, 1959), Billy Wilder, remain in the memory of any film lover. Likewise, some sequences of which starred passages are among the most played in the history of cinema. The scene from The Seven Year Itch in the wind that escapes from a subway vent up the skirt of the blonde actress, finding its legs, has been imitated many times, as in The paula-antonio in Red , "starring Kelly LeBrock, and has recovered in endless occasions for advertisements.

The following films, mostly comedies, catapulted to fame. Marilyn was, indeed, the great interpreter of comedies from the fifties: the irresistible object of desire who received a flurry of trap on her round buttocks in Monkey Business (Howard Hawks, 1952), that part of his anatomy was also stuck in the porthole of a ship in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (Howard Hawks, 1953).

In How to Marry a Millionaire (Jean Negulesco, 1953), hut its role as stupid phenomenal, ambitious and shortsighted, but it is in The Seven Year Itch (Billy Wilder, 1955) where the overwhelming nature becomes erotic scenes as enduring myth famous as one in which a gust of wind accidental naked legs or the other is discovered that refreshes your underwear in the refrigerator.
Billy Wilder also directed to Marilyn in Some Like It Hot , where Tony Curtis was involved, which then rudely said that kissing Marilyn Monroe was like kissing Hitler. By contrast, the principal justified the continued delays with which the star arrived at work, behavior that was becoming habitual beating all sorts of enemies: "He arrived late to shoot often, but not because the sheets will stick together.

However, the result was a film that marked the birth of the new American comedy, which exceeded the tradition of Frank Capra to acquire a greater dose of acidity critical. With sarcasm reminiscent of Eric von Stroheim, the comedy is ambiguous situations occur that cause funny moments, but the American way of life that shows it is not so idyllic, the characters are the bitter pessimism instill know Billy Wilder. Marilyn Monroe, in a comfortable role of a chorus girl, valuably supplemented the work of Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis, two musicians who are forced to flee Chicago for witnessing the violent actions of a band of gangsters, and who join the orchestra Marilyn Monroe female disguised as women. Referring to the contribution of the unstable Marilyn, Wilder was blunt: "When I finished with Marilyn, but had reached the forty shots and had held its late and you are faced with unique and inimitable".
During the filming of The Billionaire (1960), Marilyn had an affair with the male protagonist who shared with her the top billing, Yves Montand, who was then married to actress Simone Signoret.

All darts were thrown harsh against Marilyn, who had been admitted to a psychiatric hospital in late 1960 and who even came to acknowledge the death of Clark Gable, which occurred immediately after the end of filming. This despite the fact that, viewed in perspective, the work of Marilyn in this movie has been considered the best of his career was able to create a perfect role of a symbolic nature, on the other hand, perhaps anticipating its own failure.
To take his own life left unfinished a George Cukor film, a musical with Cyd Charisse and Dean Martin to be titled Something's Got To Give and Marilyn appeared bathing naked in a pool. The scene was filming, and photographs that show her wearing a blue bathrobe have been justly celebrated.
