Does anyone else like her? I can never find any other fans besides myself, but since there are more people  on here now maybe I can at least fine 1?

I have always liked her....I think she was murdered by JFK, RFK and Peter Lawford...OR they at least conspired to do it >:( I don't have much support on that theory though ::)

Why would they have or want her murdered? ???

Why would they have or want her murdered? ???







OOO I know this one because she knew to much.  She knew something and was going to blow their cover, see they thought she was a dumb blonde because most people picture her that way, which she is not at all and more people should read up on her.  Yes she did sleep around, but that doesnt make her dumb.  Anywho she threatend to blow their cover and they knew she would so they decided to kill, rumors say it has to do with many things like wars, mafias, and even a cover up pregnancy

Where would she be if she was alive today?  ???

Yup I have that one in one of my books may I like to add that theres 25 books of just her in my collection also I have that one in a card collection too  ;D  8)  I dunno where she would be now, I think if she have lived she probably wouldnt be as famous as she is now (not being mean)

Where would she be if she was alive today?  ???

Howard, I think she would be shacked up in Rawlins, WY  :)


Lat=41.5N Lon=107.1W Elevation=6780 feet

Maximum temperature 1961 to 1990: 95 F Minimum temperature 1961 to 1990: -36 F

Mean Annual Precipitation: 9.8 inches Mean Annual Snowfall: 62.4 inches


Why ?  How should I know?  ;D

She'd be a 70 year old grandmother with 2 children. ;D

Gee, to me, that doesn't look like Marilyn. I really like Marilyn Monroe. I love all of her films -"Some Like It Hot" is one of my favorite and "Bus Stop" . I think she'd be about 76 or 77 years old if she were still alive and probably one of those glamourous granny types. I'd like to think. She was a great actress-studied with the best and had a tough life but left behind her image forever. I am proud to have the same initials as she does. :)

If she was alive today,how would she react if she saw Tony Curtis? ;D

I always liked Marilyn.  She was beautiful, funny and made some great really great movies.  I also think that she was more intelligent than people gave her credit for being.  "How to Marry a Millionaire", "Bus Stop" and "Some Like It Hot" are my favorites. 

It's sad to think, she was probably one of the most beautiful women EVER in movies, but if she were starting out now, she would be considered "fat" by today's standards.  Personally, I'd rather be built like Marilyn than any of these pencils with heads that are making films today.

I agree with you completely on the bodies (Twigs) of women today....but I also think that Jayne Mansfield was better looking than Marilyn....just my opinion though!

I think she was a bit entertaining, not an overall great actress. She did have presence on screen, though. I liked her in "The Seven-Year Itch".

Haha she looked like Marilyn almost. 


aww the bodies of pin-ups from back then.  They were so original, and beautiful and not fake.  girls today are just plain nasty and fake.....not all but a great majority.  I like women with meat on their bones and very shapely

I'm not a BIG fan of Marilyn's nor do I dislike her. I really love the movie Some Like it Hot. I think Marilyn had some serious problems-drugs, alcohol, etc. But, because she was so beautiful, everyone "took care of her" so to speak rather than getting her the help she needed. I think if she had lived, she would have been a "has-been" because there were some directors, actors, etc. who wouldn't work with her anymore because she was a bit out-of-control with the drugs and alcohol.

I also think that she was murdered-by whom? Who knows. Could have been a Kennedy. It wouldn't surprise me.

i enjoyed watching her in the film Niagara

On the anniversary of her death, I have been reminded that it is believe that Marilyn Monroe was thinking of Twentieth Century Fox's over-running and over-costing for "Cleopatra" that made her current film "Something's Got to Give" along with Monroe's illnesses to be shelved, and with her troubles led to her suicide.

She was messed up due to her childhood and her negative experience with Hollywood. I don't think she was 'crazy', but traumatized most likely due to her sexual abuse! I think that medication in the 1950's sucked and she got addicted to the pills. I don't think medication for mental health issues truly became very good until the 1980's. She was just an unlucky woman, and lucky, both at the same time. Had she lived in the 1980's and 1990's, she wouldn't have been addicted to her depression medication, and probably still lived. I don't think she was clinically depressed, but most likely situationally so!

Then what if someone had asked her to go to therapy in The 1960's and wanted to pay for her sessions? ???

Just released on Netflix is "The Mystery of Marilyn Monroe: The Unheard Tapes". An American documentary film directed by Emma Cooper. It is centered around the life and untimely death of American actress and cultural icon Marilyn Monroe and is told through archival footage and unseen interviews with friends of the star. It sheds light on the events of the night of her death.

It's a shame as how she passed away.  :\'(

I like the 1951 comedy "As Young As You Feel" during Marilyn's "up and coming" time.  Here's an excerpt montage good for this thread:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iz0o2l9yc0w

My first true encounter with Marilyn Monroe was a double bill of her films "The Seven Year Itch" and "Some Like It Hot". Both films are classics!

I have only seen her in the bus stop (1956) which is said to be her best movie!

http://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmXoypizjW3WknFiJnKLwHCnL72vedxjQkDDP1mXWo6uco/wiki/Bus_Stop_(1956_film).html

Did you see her final film before she passed away?

I have seen her last completed film "The Misfits", which is sad to watch for it is the last film of fellow staring actors Montgomery Clift and Clark Gable as well.

I have seen footage of "Something's Got to Give", you can see in her eyes a hint of uncertainty.

I think her final film might be on YouTube, you can go try and find it.

Muchos Gracious :)

It has to be paid to view the film complete, but there are clips available from the film.

And I think her final scene was her getting out of a pool in the buff.

That must be from the uncompleted film "Something's Got to Give", I do not recall a scene like that in her final released film "The Misfits".

The makers of the films could've given the role to someone else.

They did, the producers remade the film with Doris Day in the title role with the film "Move Over Darling".

Today would have been her 96th birthday. :\'(

By the way, the only film I've seen with her as a main cast member is Some Like It Hot.

Marilyn was a much better actress than people give her credit for
Bus Stop and Niagara and Seven Year Itch are those I pick as my favorite roles of hers.

Contigo, Let's say you put her in 2022 (before her drug overdose), what kind of film would you put her in?
Not at the age she is now but her late 20's-early 30's.

Any type of comedy or drama role, suspense films , even a western movie .

I bet she would be using Facebook, Instagram Or any other app and I would also bet the amount of followers she would get. :o

She was a good person overall. But I'm sure she could use some 'poking' of her myth a bit.

The negative about her: She was bit of an attention lover. Nothing against that especially if you're an actor/performer. But it played
a small part in her downfall.

She late for stuff a lot. How much of this is mental health and how much of it is a rebellion against the men that used her, is hard to tell.
Only she would know.

She cared way too much of what other people thought. This is my personal opinion. I haven't read all the books on her so I wouldn't know.

I'm pretty sure she slept with some married men. A good chunk of it might have been for career reasons but it's still bad.

I don't mind her. But I realize that she is a human with her flaws and all.

She wasn't a great actor like her stans say but she did have a strange aura, and charm, about her. Which is why her legend lives on. Elizabeth Taylor is probably a better actress but she was more of an actress than a character. Plus, she wasn't unattractive (Marilyn that is).

Marilyn never looked ugly but you could see her aging (nothing too drastic or horrible) and drunkenness from 1960 to 1962 in some of her pictures.

She's kinda like America's idea of Venus. She also just had bad luck at times too.

These are just images of her from the past, none give an indication towards how she would look at the age of 96.

Just looking at the images, she would resemble more like Betty White in her old age.

She was like a shooting star, she went too fast and too strong.  :(

I heard that medication for mental illness pre~80's sucked. It might have been the pills that saved her from going away sooner. Honestly, part of her life was just a tragedy and bad luck.  :(

Didn't she have a therapist to talk to?
