Calendar Girl is a 1993 film starring Jason Priestley, Gabriel Olds, and Jerry OConnell. The movie, set in 1962, tells the story of three young men who go on a trip to Hollywood to fulfil their dream of meeting Marilyn Monroe.

While Marilyn Monroe is enjoying her rise to stardom and iconic pop culture status, three childhood friends are happy enough to sneakily obtain racy pictures of her for their pubescent enjoyment. Once they mature at least by age, Roy has his eyes set on joining the Military despite his strained relationship with his father. His buddy, Scott, has a prosthetic leg and is to be married soon to his darling significant other Becky, and his other pal, Ned, known affectionately as Bleuer, works at a small town store and isnt initially as anxious to partake on this crazed notion as his friends.Thanks to Roys Uncle, the three desirous and hapless friends shack up at his place out in California where they yearn to meetif only for a brief secondthe fabulous and stunning Miss Marilyn Monroe. Their quest leads to shenanigans and silliness ensues as they arrange the most brainless ideas to win over their idol. One includes corralling a sad cow to moo outside of Miss Monroes luxurious residence, another has the guys speeding after Marilyn towards a nude beach and an entirely separate subplot has them dodging some bad guys that are after Roy. ........
