(9 of 9)
She probably can be. In Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Marilyn showed her talent for comedy. In Bits Stop she has a chance to show what she can do with the first part she has ever played that is any deeper than her makeup. In Sleeping Prince she will have to hold the screen against Sir Laurence Olivier, one of the most accomplished actors of the English-speaking world. Next winter, it was reported last week, Marilyn will tackle Aristophanes' Lysistrata on TV, and she is deadly determined that some day she will play Grushenka in The Brothers Karamazov.
