Was there ever anyone else like Marilyn? While her career, indeed her life, was marked by personal problems, and a reputation for being unreliable and difficult to work with, she is still responsible for such enduring favourites as Some Like it Hot, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and The Seven Year Itch. Marilyn Monroe always felt she lived her life on the outside, never really accepted by Hollywood. Never finding the kind of happiness with a man that she dreamed of, yet never behaving in a way that would allow a man to completely trust in her. She was a natural talent who constantly tried to be something different. Today her memory is cherished by millions of people the world over. Ever since her death, at a comparatively young age, there have been countless conspiracy theories; theories that have prevented some from remembering how she was a talented, yet fragile, actress. From poor little orphan girlA" to a worldwide celebrity, this is the story of how Norma Jeane became Marilyn Monroe. Includes audio CD with 20 music tracks.
