Description
A first-draft screenplay for Marilyn Monroe's musical-comedy Let's Make Love (Twentieth Century Fox, 1960) that belonged to her acting coach Paula Strasberg.

The light blue paper cover of the 162-page script is is printed with The Billionaire (the film's original title), is dated February 3, 1959, and the top left is stamped with the number 822, the words "First Draft Screenplay," and the lower right is stamped with the number 34. The first page features the typewritten words "The Billionaire" / Screenplay by Norman Krasna / Jerry Wald Productions/ First Draft Screenplay / February 3, 1959.

Let's Make Love was Monroe's second to last completed film and her final musical movie. She portrayed actress Amanda Dell who is rehearsing an off-Broadway revue that spoofs a headline-making billionaire named Jean-Marc Clement (Yves Montand), who, by accident, becomes cast as himself and falls in love with Monroe's character. The film earned more than $6 million at the box office upon release.
