		Bus Stop was one of the first vehicles in which Marilyn Monroe was given top billing, and was adapted from a play by William Inge by George Axelrod, who wrote the play of The Seven Year Itch and the screenplay to The Manchurian Candidate and Breakfast At Tiffany's.
		Bus Stop is a pleasant enough chapter in the Marilyn Monroe career, but hardly warrants any sort of classic status banded to it.
		Bus Stop is mildly diverting for ninety minutes, and can be enjoyable in the right mood, but is hardly the greatest feature of Monroe's career, and has since been pushed to the back of the queue by her other, stronger films.

	DVD Verdict Review - Bus Stop
		Adapted from a play by William Inge, the film Bus Stop provides Marilyn Monroe with her first starring dramatic role and she makes the most of it.
		The story reaches its climax in a bus stop where the principals all become stranded during a snow storm.

		She's been seen on Berkshires screens in recent weeks in "Heights," a just-now being released 2003 independent film in which she has a major role as the photojournalist daughter of a famous stage actress, played by Glenn Close.
		With all the film work she's been getting — she's also been in the two "Spider-Man" movies and Steven Spielberg's "Catch Me If You Can" — Banks says she really can't afford to take six months out of her film career to work on a play.
		So did "Bus Stop" in a 1956 version that starred Marilyn Monroe as Cherie, a nightclub singer who catches the fancy of an ingenuous cowboy, Bo (played in the film by Don Murray and here by "The O.C.'s" Logan Marshall-Green), who is determined to take her back to his ranch in Montana and marry her.

	Bus Stop (1956)
		Bus Stop is one of the slightly later films in the filmography of Marilyn Monroe, before she became too difficult to deal with and before her untimely death six years later.
		Well, by this stage of her career Marilyn Monroe was supposedly exercising "artistic control" over scripts, directors and the like, which draws an interesting observation as to why, in her desire to be taken as a serious actress, she undertook a role that involved heavy use of a rather (for the time) skimpy costume.
		Whereas she was not expected to do much else than look sensational in earlier films in her career, by this stage she was seeking recognition as a genuine actress and was doing plenty to suggest it was deserved recognition.

	Bus Stop Film Review - Time Out Film
		Although it's not explicitly a musical, Bus Stop is certainly a product of that imagination which says the best things in life are free, and if you don't have a dream how you gonna have a dream come true.
		Once that's understood, it's easier to go beyond the bizarre misogyny and stilted theatricality of the plot in which a naive, loud-mouthed cowboy (Murray) tries to kidnap a saloon singer from the Ozarks played by Monroe.
		Apart from her engaging performance, the film's real interest lies in the unpleasant nature of its subtext: equations of poverty with personal unworthiness, and the uneasiness of an implicitly homosexual focus on Murray.

		Kidnapping a woman (with a lasso of all things) and dragging her on the bus is a stretch, but when Bo finally gets his butt kicked by Carl, and learns a lesson in humility, and then Marilyn falls for him, well...
		As the bus driver asks him later, "Were you born in a barn?" Well, close, as he has been isolated on a ranch all his life.
		The woman to woman talk between her and MM in the bus is a standout.

	Film Freak Central Presents THE MARILYN MONROE DVD REVIEW PAGE
		As with their remaining 'Marilyn's, the film transfer on this disc represents a combination of negative and digital restoration; though its examples are side-by-side when above-and-below would be easier to watch, an included before-and-after comparison proves revelatory.
		The film's original 3.0 mix is at once clear and irritating, depending on the distance between one's speakers: dialogue tends to drift about the front soundstage according to screen placement.
		When their bus stops for a snowstorm, stranding its passengers at a roadside diner, Cherie angles to escape his clutches and gets a spanking out of it.

		Goofs: Continuity: Virgil has his guitar with him in the jeep on the way to catch the bus but boards without it and later on he plays it on the bus.
		Alternately puzzled, lost, desperate, lonely, confused and unexpectedly radiant with happiness, Marilyn Monroe, with a mixture of humor and pain scores her greatest triumph in Joshua Logan's "Bus Stop" creating a complete and deeply touching character...
		With a modern Western background and rodeo atmosphere, and with panoramic long shot and overwhelming close-ups in color and CinemaScope, "Bus Stop" is a comedy-drama very well done, and a modest entertainment in familiar American vein...
