Probably Some Like It Hot, as that was one of my Dad's favorites.

Marilyn Monroe movies and VHS/Betamax go as far back as 1977, with the very first releases of The Seven Year Itch, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Bus Stop, and How to Marry a Millionaire.

And that's not counting any 16mm copies that were available for rent during the 50's and 60's.

Ya I have a 1983 release by CBS/FOX (After this they ruined that movie on VHS)

There is an earlier one also by magnetic video??

For Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. I don't believe there was ever one for Some Like it Hot.

Anyways, look at all those film splices! You, can even see part of the previous frame get jerky!

Wow, I think I've seen most if not all:

Some Like it Hot
Bus Stop
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
How To Marry a Millionaire
O'Henry's Full House
There's No Business Like Show Business
Niagara
All About Eve
We're Not Married
The Prince and the Showgirl
The Seven Year Itch
Don't Bother to Knock
Monkey Business

and I'm sure there are a couple I'm forgetting.

I think Don't Bother to Knock was her best one. She's actually scary in that movie! Total powerhouse! It was also Anne Bancroft's film debut, but nobody remembers that she was in it

I like How to Marry A Millionaire.

Bus Stop! She was absolutely perfect in the role! She dreamed of becoming a famous singer but she was terrible! Her rendition of "That Old Black Magic" was priceless!

It was funny and touching at the same time.
