MARILYN MONROE: AMERICA’S MOST CONTROLLED WOMAN (duplicated)

Blinding lights. Cameras flashing. Hollywood, 1950s. A smile frozen

on her face. On set, directors shouted and scripts were rewritten. Marilyn stood silent.

She was not in control. Packed cinemas. Screaming fans. She became America’s

fantasy. Behind the scenes: pills and insomnia. The image was profitable.

The person was disposable. Cold War. Nuclear drills. Headlines about communism.

This was politics. Powerful men and closed doors. She was close to power but

had none. Contracts stamped. Roles denied. When she stopped obeying,

she became a problem. An empty house. A ringing phone. She was thirty-six.
