More Details About The Seven Year Itch
More Information
The Seven Year Itch, written by George Axelrod, was brought famously to the screen by the trio of Marilyn Monroe, Tom Ewell and director Billy Wilder. At it’s time The Seven Year Itch was a huge break though in censorship because of its lighthearted take on the theme of adultery. It is also considered by many to be Marilyn’s best performance. Before its jump to the silver screen The Seven Year Itch was a successful play on Broadway, winning high acclaim for both Ewell and playwright George Axelrod. Axelrod went on to write screenplays for Breakfast at Tiffany’s and The Manchurian Candidate.
