Here’s a concise write-up for the DVD5 release of The Prince and the Showgirl (1957):

Directed and produced by Laurence Olivier, The Prince and the Showgirl is a charming romantic comedy set against the opulent backdrop of 1911 London. The film stars Marilyn Monroe as Elsie Marina, a vivacious American showgirl, and Laurence Olivier as the sophisticated but stuffy Regent of Carpathia, Prince Charles. Their chance encounter during the coronation of King George V leads to an unpredictable and witty battle of wills—and hearts—over the course of a single night.

This edition is valued by collectors for preserving the film’s original cinematic framing and mono audio. It offers a solid viewing experience for fans of classic Hollywood and Monroe’s celebrated comedic performance—often cited as one of her finest. Olivier’s dual role as director and co-star adds historical interest, capturing the real-life tension and artistic chemistry between two legendary acting styles.
