All Of The Glamour & All Of The Tragedy Of Marilyn Monroe
Believe it, or not – Since her tragic death (at the age of 36) back in 1962 – Approximately 1000 books have been published on the life, the loves, the highs, and the lows of Marilyn Monroe.To this very day, Marilyn Monroe’s phenomenal, manufactured screen-charisma has endured like no other Hollywood actor’s of her (or any other) generation ever has.
Through vintage footage, stills (as well as drawing on never-before-seen personal papers, diaries, and letters written by Monroe), this celebrity-documentary recaps Marilyn’s life in a nutshell as contemporary actors discuss her prevailing appeal and recite (sometimes with too much embellishment) from her writings.
Competently directed by Liz Garbus, “Love, Marilyn” is, most certainly, well-worth a view to all, regardless of whether one is a die-hard Marilyn Monroe fan, or not.
Very good but flawed approach
This was a very good documentary. I learned a lot about MM and liked seeing old interviews with her and her friends and peers. The story, structure, music and editing were great and it was never dull. My only complaint is that I cringed many times, watching most of the actors read from Marilyn and others’ letters and books. I felt that they emoted waaaaaay too much and were showing off. It felt like they agreed to recite the words or “act” for selfish reasons. It was over the top: especially Marisa Tormei, Uma Thurman and Adrian Brody. It called to much attention to the actors and was very distracting. It took me OUT of the film.The film was about MM not these actors. At the very least, the should have been offscreen, only supplying a voice over. I suppose the director’s argument would be that they were trying to convey the emotions of the subjects who had written the books, poetry, etc, but it was embarrassing and self serving. I will not see the film again for this single reason. This is a documentary. I don’t want to see Hollywood actors overacting.
