any fans MUST WATCH a film called "Love Marilyn". It's not a movie. It's not a documentary. A couple of years ago a box was found in an old attic. This box contained many journals covering different periods of her life. It is read by several different actresses using a background with a blown-up journey entry in her own handwriting. it is not edited and she herself, paints a picture of her very troubled and sometimes (rarely) happy times. it is unbelieveable. she tells us, her innermost thoughts. she doesn't mention lovers or the usual things we have some to expect from her. this is all about what's in her head, many entries being made mid night when up with her insomnia. ANY ABSOLUTE WATCH FOR ANY FAN or anyone wanting to get inside the mind of Marilyn Monroe as she talks from the grave. You'll never forget it, promise. please let me know what you think of it.
Take out those stupid baby dolls and it would have been perfect. Her voice coach told her that she really couldn't sing but she gave the impression she could because she was on pitch and she knew how to use inflection. He was always making her feel inferior from what I've read. She wanted to marry him but he told her she wouldn't make a good mom for his kids. Can you imagine how that made her feel? Anyway, he wasn't much himself if he couldn't see the value and talent in her voice; that when using it all as far as what she did have, it turned into something amazing. Norma Jean as Marilyn, a true and absolute talent. For those who don't get it, I almost feel for them, those who don't get MM are really missing out. She endures and that says it all.
WICKED!! if she kept singing like that through out her career, she could have made it big as a singer alone. every note, Marilyn perfect. Way ahead of her time.
I really prefer the way she's singing here than how she sang in many of her other musicals - It's beautiful! Sounds much more powerful and in control :)
it was cold outside of Tiffanys
I was shivering in the storm
I walked in and asked a gentleman
Could I plea-ease keep warm
He asked me how come a baby doll
Has no comfy place to go
So I told that kindly gentleman
My tale of woe
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
To keep her worry free
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
But where's the one for me
Rich or poor I don't care who
If he hasn't got a million then a half will do
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
Could my da-daddy be you
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
With silver in his hair
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
Who has some gold to spare
Some sweet softy who enjoys
Bringin' home his baby little diamond toys, oh ho!
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
Could my da-daddy be you
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
In case she runs aground
Every baby needs a da-da-daddy
To keep her safe and sound
Yes we feel just like Red Ridin' Hood
Cause the wolves are awful hungry in our neighbourhood
Oh every baby needs a da-da-daddy
Could my da-daddy be you
Could my da-daddy be you
I like watching Marilyn Monroe sing and dance here but am I the only one who thinks this is really weird and creepy? How did they go from a Rita Hayworth, Gilda-esque dance number about sugar daddys to creepy dancing baby dolls? And the guys are turned on by it. Whoa...
She wasn´t "herself" here just yet. She gave off the Rita Hayworth vibe more than her own vibe. Funny how apparently they tried to make her somebody else before realizing that letting her be herself would be the best thing that could happen to her as a star - and their box office as well.
