I had heard such great things about this movie so I was excited to watch tonight on TCM.
To my surprise it's one of the most dreadful movies I have ever sat through. Maybe this was a good movie in 1956 but today it's just laughable. Monroe was embarrassingly bad and Murray's character would be punched or shot if he acted that way in public (whether in 1956 or 2014) so it was totally unbelievable.
"Over-acting" would be a nice comment on this cast. Just horrible.
I really felt that I wasted two hours of my life watching this. I think people may be "reviewing" this movie from memory and not re-watching it to see how bad it actually is.
