 | Griz - are you sure about the association with Spencer Tracy? I read that that was Katherine Hepburn and not Audrey. Regardless, both Hepburns are more my type than Marilyn Monroe. |

| GUEST88131 | "Monroe is better. Roman holidays made a star-Audrey, while Monroe made herself a star and she was more professional." So not showing up to set, blowing your lines for 70 takes, and eventually having to read your lines off a cue card is more professional? Monroe's issues on set are legendary today, while few have bad to say about Audrey. She was kind to everyone on set, and was always professional, courteous, punctual and demure. And it was never about being a star for Audrey. She was an actress; it was her job that she happened to be damn good at doing. And someone who overcame her own vulnerabilties and suffering to help children around the world. It's that quality people should admire. |

| ''help children around the world'' I am not questioning her great personality. I know Audrey worked with UN with a mission to help African children! |

| Monroe is more pathetic to me. A lot of people stereotyped Monroe as typical Blonde. Moroe has the amazing gift in acting. Just look at her brilliant performance in Seven Year's Itch, it will convince you. Moroe lived a very pathetic life. Her marriage life was terrible, it was due to her extreme innocence. She had a broken marriage with Arthur Miller. The inquisitive Paparazzi has driven her to suicide. They put huge pressure on her by unleashing enormous negative reports on her. Even after her death, the ruthless media exposed her naked corpse to the outside. Just like the song Elton composed for Monroe said, "it seems to me, you lived your life like a Candle In the Wind". I am confused why so many people just blamed Monroe. She is like a slight candle in a whirlwind! |

| This is the same type of debate that we have here as to which is better, a Ford or Chevrolet vehicle. It doesn't make any difference now because the foreign imports(Japanese) are better. |

| GUEST88131 | Marilyn is so-so in everything. Pretty, but def not a great actress. Even in the 7 year itch. She couldn't carry a film in a bucket. Look at her best films - Gentlemen prefer blondes, Some like it hot - she is not what made them good. It was the talent of her co-stars. I do like her in these pictures, but she is def the weakest link. Without Jane Russell, who was a great talent, Gentlemen would have tanked. Same with Lemmon and Curtis in Some Like it Hot. Hepburn could and did carry many and most of her films. She didn't earn five Oscar noms (and one win) with her pretty face. She outshone greats like Peck, Bogart, Grant, Astaire, etc in hr pictures. |
