The Seven Year Itch is a 1955 American romantic comedy film based on a three-act play with the same name by George Axelrod. The film was co-written and directed by Billy Wilder, and stars Marilyn Monroe and Tom Ewell, reprising his Broadway role from the play. It contains one of the most iconic images of the 20th century – Monroe standing on a subway grate as her white dress is blown upwards by a passing train. The titular phrase, which refers to declining interest in a monogamous relationship after seven years of marriage, has been used by psychologists RE-ISSUE VINTAGE POSTER 1965 Titre original The Seven Year Itch Réalisation Billy Wilder Scénario George Axelrod Billy Wilder George Axelrod (pièce) Acteurs principaux Marilyn Monroe Tom Ewell Sociétés de production 20th Century Fox Pays d’origine Drapeau des États-Unis États-Unis Genre Comédie Durée 105 minutes (1h45) Sortie 1955
