Carl Rollyson Quote

January 25: Marilyn is filmed singing My Heart Belongs to Daddy. It is a production number in which she is surrounded by a group of adoring men, who ferry her across the stage in a routine reminiscent of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes—except that it is less raucous and more casual. Marilyn, wearing a large loose-fitting sweater and tights, is lofted onto the shoulders of her retinue. The result is mere imitation of her earlier performances. This is not her best work. She is dealing with inferior material, and she knows it.
