Bus Stop

When Cherie exits the bus because the snow is too deep for the bus to continue, heavy snow is falling yet the sky in the background is clear and you can even see a few clouds over the mountains.

The snow on the actors' clothes.

Virgil has his guitar with him in the jeep on the way to catch the bus but boards without it and later on he plays it on the bus.

Cheri is repeatedly said to be from the Ozark Mountains, yet her map showing her "direction of life" begins in southwest Arkansas, at least 100 miles south of the southernmost part of the Ozarks.

When Grace receives a call at the diner that the roads are open, she wakes up Carl and helps him put on his shirt.

In the next scene Carl is putting on his shirt again.

The length of Cherie's green scarf changes as Bo wears it during the rodeo.

Although several sequences were indeed filmed in Phoenix AZ involving 1956 rodeo and rodeo parade, non-rodeo scenes supposedly depicting downtown Phoenix and Cherie's boardinghouse were clearly shot elsewhere - no major thoroughfare in Phoenix has hilly terrain or Victorian style buildings seen in film.

As Bo and Virgil talk in the jeep on the way to catch the bus, their voices clearly echo.

When Bo and Cherie are talking in the Bus stop, Cherie has her hand in a fist next to her mouth.

When the camera angle shifts she has a cup of coffee and both hands up by her mouth.

I doubt that there's ever been any movie hero as naive or as bumptious as Don Murray's Beau Decker in Bus Stop. By his standards the Pontipee family in Seven Brides For Seven Brothers were Oxford Dons.

I saw Bus Stop on ShortsTV and I have to say this is probably the best short I've ever seen. The two main actors - Sam Underwood & Valorie Curry - are married in real life and their chemistry really shines through in this film.

In her prime, which because of her death at any early age was all of her cinematic life, Monroe was a gorgeous force of nature very much under-appreciated in her thespianism. Once I adjusted to Logan's directional style and to the rodeo and fish-out-of-water concepts, I really laid back and enjoyed this.

The premise of Bus Stop sounds intriguing but after watching it, it's completely nonsensical.Before I get into my cons, I'll start off with pros.

This is probably the most repulsive film I have ever watched. From the outset Don Murray is loud, obnoxious and aggravating and I thought you know what this might die down, oh how wrong I was.

What a disagreeable and annoying film this turned out to be. Marilyn Monroe is the only reason, I mean the ONLY reason to watch this dreck, and it's a shame that she wasted a good performance on this script.

"Beauregard 'Bo' Decker" (Don Murray) is a young cowboy who was born and raised on a ranch in Montana and has never set foot off of it his entire life. As a result, while he knows everything there is to know about horses and cattle, he is absolutely clueless about life in general.

You know how sometimes you watch a movie and you know it was based on a play? Well this is that kind of movie.

If you want to see Marilyn Monroe in a good movie, I don't think you want to start here. Though I am surprised by the number of reviewers here that think the film and her performance in it was wonderful.
