Two reels of silent, 8-millimeter color film of Marilyn Monroe on the set of "The Misfits" -- her last completed film -- fetched 60,000 U.S. dollars Saturday at an auction of movie memorabilia at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino.

The auction also included the original disco ball from "Saturday Night Fever" and an original script of "The Godfather" signed by Marlon Brando. The sale was held by Julien's Auctions.

The 47-minute film, "On the Set with 'The Misfits,'" was shot by film extra Stanley Floyd Kilarr. It features candid moments with Monroe and co-star Clark Gable, as well as Montgomery Clift, Thelma Ritter and director John Huston.

"The Misfits" was also the last completed film for Gable.

Gable had a fourth heart attack just after filming was finished and died Nov. 16, 1960, about two months before the movie's U.S. release. Monroe died Aug. 5, 1962.

Cathy and Rod McCormick, of Sparks, Nevada, obtained the film canister from her father, Frank Hasy, Kilarr's uncle.

Items sold early Saturday included a suit worn by Elvis Presley in the film "Viva Las Vegas," which drew a bid of 36,325 dollars. Alfred Hitchcock's driver's license sold for 8,000 dollars, and an original "King Kong" French film poster sold for 40,625 dollars, according to auction officials.

Anna Nicole Smith's former boyfriend Larry Birkhead attended the auction and spent nearly 3,000 dollars on lingerie once worn by the late Playboy playmate. Birkhead said he was picking up mementos for the couple's 1-year-old daughter, Dannielynn.
