*Aug 31 1956 Bus Stop Is Released* Bus Stop, also known as The Wrong Kind of Girl, is a 1956 motion picture directed by Joshua Logan for 20th Century Fox, starring Marilyn Monroe, Don Murray, Arthur OConnell, Betty Field, Eileen Heckart, Robert Bray and Hope Lange. The film was released on August 31, 1956. Unlike most of Marilyn Monroes movies, Bus Stop is neither a full-fledged comedy nor a musical, but rather a dramatic piece. Monroe does however sing one song: That Old Black Magic (by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer). Bus Stop was based on two plays by William Inge, People in the Wind and Bus Stop. The inspiration for the play Bus Stop came from people Inge met in Tonganoxie, Kansas. In the 1961-62 season, ABC adapted the play and film into a television series of the same name, Bus Stop starring Marilyn Maxwell as the owner of the bus station and diner. In the segment Cherie which most closely follows the film, Tuesday Weld performed the role of Marilyn Monroe, and Gary Lockwood appeared as the Don Murray character. The film was shot in Idaho and Arizona https://youtube/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=KAcCRys0bTQ
