The Seven Year Itch, 1955

The film might not have aged well (especially since it's a movie about adultery that's unable to show adulterous scenes due to censorship), but as "The Girl," Monroe shines. She turns the archetypal role into an unforgettable one with her comedic timing and charm. Don't even get us started on that iconic image of Monroe's dress being blown up by an air vent (which again, due to censorship, never even appears in the film).
