You've never seen so much fun!

These glamorous showgirls have everything a girl could want...except engagement rings! In a quest for true love, Lorelei (Marilyn Monroe) and her gold digger pal Dorothy (Jane Russell) set sail on a luxury liner bound for France. But the pair hits rocky waters when a manipulative detective, an over-aged, over-sexed millionaire (Charles Coburn), and the entire men's Olympic team try to put an anchor in their marriage-minded mischief. It's a wild and joyously funny ride across the Atlantic as our bathing beauties plan and plot a way to land their men.
