An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Let's Make Love, the 1960 George Cukor musical romantic mistaken identity comedy ("It's all about what you can't get enough of! [Fun! Joy! Laughter! And Love! Love! Love!]"; "Meet that man Montand! He's dedicated to the new Monroe Doctrine!"; "Written for the screen by Norman Krasna"; produced by Jerry Wald; about a billionaire who learns that he is going to be parodied in a stage play, and he pretends to be an actor so he can learn what the play is about, and while doing so, he falls in love with the beautiful star) starring Marilyn Monroe, Yves Montand, Tony Randall, Frankie Vaughan, Joe Besser, Wilfrid Hyde-White, and David Burns. Note that Gregory Peck was originally cast as the lead in this movie, but Marilyn Monroe's then-husband, Arthur Miller, re-wrote the script so that she had a bigger role, and that caused Peck to leave. The studio tried to hire Rock Hudson, but couldn't get him, and then they got Yves Montand, who was Marilyn Monroe's pick. That was especially unfortunate and ironic, because Monroe had an affair with him during the filming of the movie (after unsuccessfully attempting to have one with Frankie Vaughan). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. The poster is brittle and there is much separation and some tattering and tiny paper loss along the top quarter of the vertical fold and there is minor separation at the other crossfolds. These areas of separation have been partially repaired with tape from the back and the tape has become somewhat stiff with time and it prevents the poster from laying completely flat in those areas and it has caused some additional tearing around the top crossfold extending into Monroe's hair. The poster is otherwise in quite nice condition and its colors are still vibrant and if one chose to have it restored the tape could surely be removed and it would look fantastic!
