Not necessarily. To support themselves, the women sell more and more of the apartment's furnishings until they're living among card tables while trying to lure millionaires. Each woman has a string of affairs where there's usually something that's not quite as it seems, and eventually they all learn maybe they should marry for love instead of millions, after all.
The most fun part of this movie for me was watch Bacall in a comedic role. I’m used to seeing her as a femme fatale in noir flicks, so it's fun to watch her bounce off of the chemistry with Monroe and Grable. Of course, Bacall's the more dry and sarcastic one and the others are more bubbly and ditzy, so it's not completely against type, but still a refreshing change.
