With few pictures on the schedule, Skouras wanted to rush Zanuck's big-budget war epic "The Longest Day" (1962), an accurate account of the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944, with a huge international cast, into release as another source of quick cash. This offended Zanuck, still 20th Century-Fox's largest shareholder, for whom "The Longest Day" was a labor of love that he had dearly wanted to produce for many years. After it became clear that "Something's Got to Give" would not be able to progress without Monroe in the lead (Martin had refused to work with anyone else), Skouras finally decided that re-signing her was unavoidable. But days before filming was due to resume, she was found dead at her Los Angeles home and the picture resumed filming as "Move Over, Darling", with Doris Day and James Garner in the leads. Released in 1963, the film was a hit. The unfinished scenes from "Something's Got to Give" were shelved for nearly 40 years. Rather than being rushed into release as if it were a B-picture, "The Longest Day" was lovingly and carefully produced under Zanuck's supervision. It was finally released at a length of three hours and was well received.
