I hate in old movies (particularly musicals) when the stars of the movie walk into a room or wherever and people stop to stare or when they sing or dance and people randomly join in.
I guess I understand why if two hot women started to sing and dance why people would gather around. Makes sense. But when Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe enter the dining hall or a room and everyone stops what they're doing too stare, it's obnoxious. Almost as if they picked a random dining hall and no one actually knew Russell and Monroe were going to walk in.
It's rampant in this movie. What saves it is Russell and then Monroe's "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend" scene, the only one where she has even the remotest hint of a personality or pizazz.
Also, it's worthy of a note that Monroe's most perfect feature were her teeth.
