The Seven Year Itch**
(US 1955)
A fantasizing married man left on his own during the Manhattan heatwave is tempted by the girl upstairs.
Sexy looking (with its famous scene of Marilyn standing above a subway grating) but actually rather sweet and charming romantic comedy of manners, with its central character's fantasy sequences looking a little awkward when transferred from stage onto the literal medium of Cinemascope, but Marilyn has never looked lovelier, if a little distracting.
Written by: Billy Wilder, George Axelrod, from his play.
Producers: Charles K. Feldman, Billy Wilder.
Director: Billy Wilder.
Starring: Tom Ewell, Marilyn Monroe, Evelyn Keyes, Sonny Tufts, Robert Strauss, Oscar Homolka, Kathleen Freeman, Carolyn Jones.
Photography: Milton Krasner.
Music: Alfred Newman.
Titles: Saul Bass.
