Something's Got To Give is one of the most notorious unfinished films in Hollywood history. The light bedroom comedy, a remake of My Favorite Wife, was produced in 1962 by a then-foundering 20th Century Fox and directed by George Cukor. It was to feature an all-star cast, including Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, and Cyd Charisse. Monroe was to play a woman returned to her husband after the Navy rescues her from six years on a deserted atoll in the Pacific. Martin was to play the husband, and Charisse the new wife whom Martin's character marries the day Monroe's character returns home.
