Marilyn Monroe (1926-1962) once learned that someone from the crew or cast had organized a pool and was taking bets on the number of takes she would need for a particularly difficult scene. Monroe suspected Laurence Olivier (1907-1989) and got her revenge. The actress memorized the scene perfectly, so she came to the set fully prepared. Monroe performed the scene, walked off and closed the door behind her as the script required, then immediately reopened it, stuck her head out and said, "Well, how was that? Not bad, huh?" – before leaving. This line was not in the script; it was intended, of course, for the skeptics, but the phrase fit the end of the scene so well that they decided not to cut it.
The only film with Marilyn Monroe shot outside of the United States.
It was during the making of this film that the events unfolded as depicted in Simon Curtis's biographical film "7 Days and Nights with Marilyn" (2011), starring Michelle Williams, Eddie Redmayne, and Kenneth Branagh.
The relationship between Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier during filming was strained. Olivier was constantly angry with the actress for forgetting her lines or being late to the set. Monroe once simply flared up when Olivier advised her to "just be seductive."
Around the 40th minute of the film, Marilyn Monroe mistakenly calls Charles, Laurence Olivier's character, by the actor's name, saying: "Laurence, darling, good night."
