I don’t see a thread on this and after seeing it last night, I feel compelled to post that I met Marilyn, when I was in grade school. She was coming out of the set of The Misfits, her last completed movie, and she was totally engaging…much like Michelle Williams portrayed her. She, Marilyn, was like a bright light, her smile and Hi! was almost magical. She had such a special quality about her and acted like meeting my friend and I, was one of her biggest pleasures in life. She then, went to a truck, where Arthur Miller was waiting for her, and I remember thinking that not only was he terribly unattractive but almost menacing.
Should anyone watch this movie, know that as far as I know, this was a true portrait of Marilyn.
