[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 440564, member: 7"] I originally had THE FINAL DAYS in a DVD box set that also included GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES, NIAGARA, THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH, RIVER OF NO RETURN, and LET'S MAKE LOVE. Considering I have all of those films on Blu-ray now, I sold the DVD set to a local thrift store. And, well, since the documentary is online, I didn't see the need to have a physical copy. SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE definitely had potential of being a witty, fun movie, and I personally it would've been one of Marilyn's best films. If the final product had been as good as I envisioned it being, I could see it helping Marilyn find her own footing in the early-to-mid-60s bedroom rom-coms that were very popular at the time. I mean, Doris Day was four years older than Marilyn and she thrived in the genre during this era, so Marilyn's age shouldn't have slowed her down. At least not this early. Yes, I like THE FINAL DAYS a lot, and I always have.
