BTW: It's weird to think that this was 63 years ago. For them in 1951, 63 years ago was 1888!

+musicaltheatergeek79 im not sure if this is a weird phenomenon coz I do that too. Back in 1999 when I was 17, we were watching the TV counting down for the New Year. I remember feeling so excited because there was so much fuss about the Y2K bug back then. As the countdown was about to begin.. I thought to myself, did the people in the year 1000 AD ever thought of what it's like to be in the year 2000, what life and the world would be like? yet here I am alive and present going into the year 2000 wondering what life and the world will be like in the year 3000. And by that time, will there be a person like myself who will also think of what I just thought as well? really weird...we should make a club for people who think like you and me.
People who thought she was just a dumb blonde oughta think again. Her actual voice sounded so much more mature than the characters she played.

She was fake fake fake, it took me years to see that she isnt a positive icon or inspiration other than admiring her face, the fact that an adult has to construct a drastically diferent demenor depending in where you are and the people you are with is a sing of how poor and weak your actual personality is, no sence of self, no pride in who you are, dating married man and talking like a 8 year old when she was in her 30's, to apeal man , the way she walks and moves ,everything is sexualized .

I believe if ALL of you who think Marilyn wasn't Platinum Blonde yet, should have a look at the footage of her in "All About Eve" in which she played a young starlet, attending the party accompanied by the Hollywood Critic, and where Margo (Bette Davis) declares to everyone they should "Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night." Marilyn is DEFINITELY Platinum Blonde in that movie, and obviously, "All About Eve", was filmed before these awards, so...

It's been a longtime since I read about the change in her hair but if I rightly remember, Marilyn's hair was toned-down some for the role she was playing in one of her films, maybe "Don't Bother to Knock".

Marilyn was so much more than she's made out to be on the surface! Read her bio, her poems, her letters---she really wanted to improve herself but felt so low because of what happened to her as an orphan. I am almost done with her autobiography and I almost cried, it was so honest, so different than other Hollywood bios! I can't believe she was told she was unphotogenic at first! I just read about this part and her Joan Crawford "feud", though some say there's more to it than she says...

Wow, she is just stunning & that gown is divine. Marilyn was more than just a pretty face & exquisite figure - a fine actress to be sure!
Glamorous, stylish, regal, classy, revered - MM was everything you expected from an iconic 🎥movie star. She did NOT disappoint.
maybe an honorary oscar for her
Little did they know she was to become the biggest STAR In the room! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️
The most famous, misunderstood, mysterious and captivating person in Hollywood history.
MM was and still is in my book The Greatest Star. Magical. MM's performances in Some Like It Hot and The Misfits ought to have been nominated.
Marilyn was so talented. Thanks for the clip.

Just love the way how everyone had wonderful stature and poised posture at all times. Now, in 2017 it seems people have lost the ability to keep good posture. I try to remind myself to stand up straight, keep my back alignment with that of my arms to be dignified so seeing her arms here just reminds me even that much more how important the little things really are in life.

I'm hoping somebody can find and upload some of the documentaries that were listed in the book, The Unabridged Marilyn, Her Life from A to Z by Randall Riese. Thanks for uploading this :)
A very authentic Marilyn, poised, prepared, and no affectations. She was obviously intelligent, and everyone in the audience was silently waiting for her to act like a Jessica Rabbit bimbo, she brought sustained realness, and an effortless breeze.
