Marilyn
T01677447101
Marilyn is the story of a childhood without a father and love; a schizophrenic mother who doesn't want her child to exist and even tries to strangle her as an infant; and an abused young girl who marries at 16 to avoid being sent to an orphanage. Marilyn's career as an actress was to span just 16 years but featured starring roles in such classics as 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes',' How to Marry a Millionaire', 'The Seven Year Itch' and 'Some Like It Hot'. She made a total of 29 films - 24 of them in the first 8 years of her career. However, the typecasting of her 'dumb blonde' persona limited her career prospects, and she made more headlines for her private life, including marriages to baseball player Joe DiMaggio and playwright Arthur Miller.
