But perhaps, in order to understand the depth of this tragedy, it makes sense to go back when the blond Norma Jean comprehended the first lessons of life. And they were more severe than poverty, hysterical mother, stepfather rape when she passed only eight years old, loneliness and longing.

And who knows what would have been the fate of Monroe, if nature had not bestowed a beautiful body, amazing skin, pretty face, where the charm of an angel combined with a seductive temptress. Unsuccessful early marriage quickly ended in divorce, an invitation to work as model fashion model - this was the youth Marilyn Monroe. The first offer to play for the film came in 1947 when aspiring actress appeared in an episode of the film "Dangerous Years". This was followed by a few small film roles "Skudda-U! Skudda-hey! "(1947)," The ladies of the corps de ballet "(1949)," Thunderball "(1950). Cute young artist like public critics.

However, it is primarily the directors remained a beautiful, sexy woman, one of the invited to appear did not see and did not want to see it as an actress. This explains the repertoire of tapes with its participation.

She becomes a star, evening dresses pictures and "without" in millions of copies, and in the press constantly relished the fine details of his personal life. When in 1956 it became known that her husband the next MM (as it is now styled spectators and journalists) was the famous American writer, playwright Arthur Miller, the hype surrounding the actress reached its climax ...

Again, all attempts to change your screen "image" is doomed to failure. She attends classes theatrical studio E. Kazan, Lee Strasberg - it causes a smile, in his personal interview speaks of the desire to act for serious paintings, receives an invitation to the next melodramas, comedies, where she continues to play the role of a seductive, empty-headed beauty (" No Business Like Show Business, "1954;" Seven years after the wedding, "1955;" The Prince and the chorus girl, "1957). While many actors, directors, including the famous Laurence Olivier undeniable talent dramatic actress, nothing changes in the life of Marilyn Monroe. For the audience - it still Darling - the heroine of the famous film "Some Like It Hot", 1959 (in our box office - "Some Like It Hot") - a sweet, pretty solistochka cheerful ladies' orchestra, wants to marry a millionaire, but found its happiness in the arms of the same beggar, but the charming musician. Perhaps the only time she was able to go beyond the usual role - it was the last on-screen work, which bears a very symbolic name "The Misfits" (1961).
