Marilyn Monroe and her young date Tommy Rettig

 

    Marilyn Monroe and her young date Tommy Rettig attend a screening of "The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T." in 1953. Marilyn and Tommy were filming "River of No Return" at the time. He initially avoided MM because his priest had told him she was a 'scarlet woman', but she soon won him over, taking him on a fishing trip with Joe DiMaggio. Marilyn's dramatic coach, Natasha Lytess frightened Tommy by telling him that if he didn't take acting lessons, his talent would dry up by the time he was 14. Director Otto Preminger had her removed from the set, though she later returned after Marilyn intervened.
