OVERALL: Draw
Due the fact that this film has fallen in the "public domain", there are several budget-releases available with varying quality.
R2 UK "Marilyn Monroe - Screen Goddess Collection" seems to be quite a decent option (with "We Remember Marilyn" -documentary and "Marilyn Monroe At The Movies"-disc), but some US budget-releases can also offer some Monroe documentaries/featurettes - or just additional movies.
Choice is yours. -
