How to Marry a Millionaire starred Betty Grable, Marilyn Monroe, and Lauren Bacall as three New York models tired of cheap men and poverty who decide to use their considerable feminine talents to land rich men.
Terminal scribe Sacha Gervasi has been hired to write the script, and will have the job of contemporizing the original movie to fit modern views on feminism.

Her sense of vanity, which precludes her from wearing eyeglasses in public, accounts for some of the movie's funniest scenes....Mired with a hackneyed and predictable plot, the film ends with a twist;....Perhaps not a classic film in the truest sense, How to Marry a Millionaire provides an enjoyable escapist experience.....Some of the charm of this frivolous remake of the 1933 film, The Greeks Had a Word for Them lies is in the ongoing synergy among Bacall, Grable and Monroe..... ...

Indeed, I thought the film was a fun and fairly charming trifle.
How to Marry A Millionaire seemed like an erratic but generally watchable and entertaining movie.

HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE appears cleaner, sharper and better defined than it has in the past, with less grain and better detail being the greatest benefits of the restorative work.
The overall appearance of HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE is very pleasing; with this edition looking far better than everything that has preceded it on video.

One of the first films to be released in Cinemascope, the film looks great in splendid wide screen, with every advantage taken with the format.
Thats the first treat in How To Marry a Millionaire, a delightful comedy about three husband-seeking gals, who believe that a rich husband is better than a poor one.

The performances in the large ensemble cast are uniformly excellent.
Nunnally Johnson's script sparkles with wit that includes in-jokes directed at Bacall and Grable's husbands, Humphrey Bogart and bandleader Harry James.
