Yes I certainly believe that. She just happened to have more ppl recording and doting on her every word. I’m thankful for that, not being trite at all. Imagine how the Library of Congress could be filled with rich, deep stories such as this of American life before there was a true safety net and ppl were more apt to adapt to wherever the winds might blow them- and whoever might be able to help care or sustain them during different periods of their lives. This is the essence of Americana that had been lost and indeed is being buried as stories of struggle not at all important bc they mostly involve children and grandchildren of poor or downcast European immigrants.

True; I’d add only one thing more, which is that people loved her so much because in the eyes of many/most (of the public, anyway) she was BEAUTIFUL...and soft, fragile, genuine, sensitive. Her beauty maybe made her softness, her fragility, her sensitive & genuine-nature more accessible. By contrast, I am soft, fragile, genuine & sensitive, but I’m NOT beautiful (not by ANY stretch of the imagination, and CERTAINLY not by the standards applied to the incomparable Ms Monroe). But because of my fantastical physical “ordinariness” (well, I’m really only ordinary-looking on a REALLY good day; on MOST days I’m really rather unpleasant to look at)-and despite my numerous other positive “character attributes”-my value has been consistently (dis-)missed by most of the people I’ve come across in my life merely because I’m so unattractive (except for my family, who’ve all tried to build me up based on those above-referenced character qualities I co-opted from your insightful post). But this state of affairs has made it far more easy for me to be taken seriously for my intellect (&/or to be appreciated for my kindness, etc) than Marilyn ever was, despite the fact that she obviously possessed considerable native intellect and insight, both of which seemed to have flourished unabated for the balance of her life, once first brought out in her & nurtured by Arthur Miller. If only we from the polar ends of life’s vast spectrum could find a way to meet in the middle with our counterparts: the ugly but obviously intelligent (and kind) meeting up with the beautiful but less-obviously bright (yet also kind-hearted). Marilyn lived at one pole as a beauty, but this documentary shows she was really a stealth intellect with an incredibly big, warm heart: the brain & the heart are the grounds where she & I would have “met in the middle of the spectrum”, had she not died 14 years before I was born. Maybe one day we WILL meet, Marilyn & me, if there is a Heaven...

@@sarahstrabala2424 - MM would have said the same as you about herself. She believed she was ordinary, but could easily, as an actress, (and finally an icon) with professional makeup and hair, turn into something people perceived as beautiful beyond compare. It’s been well documented how she could walk down any street and no one would ever look twice, but then, only on a few rare occasions, she would be accompanied by someone she worked with and say,”Would you like to see Marilyn?” and in a wink of an eye there would be a mob scene the moment she began to ‘be’ Marilyn. It must have been an amazing thing to witness. It seemed like Marilyn was a mask she could put on and she had control over what people saw in the way she looked. Why don’t you try wearing a mask/acting like someone you admire for their beauty? She truly believed she could switch from ‘ordinary’ to spectacular in the blink of an eye - she claimed it was her ability to act that allowed her to do this. I have seen people do this so often I think it’s a defense mechanism for those who truly think they are ‘just ordinary’, but you are very intuitive as you made the observation that people will then only focus on their perception of you, and will less likely to actually have an intelligent conversation with you. This is not because people naturally assume attractiveness is linked to a lack of intelligence, but more about the effects of being spellbound by such what they see as overt confidence, they allow it to blind themselves to anything else she might have had to offer. Whenever I meet a truly esthetically perfectly proportioned person, I feel very sad for them, as they cannot pull off ordinary even if they covered everything up. It must be frustrating. Have you ever saw a person you had thought they were ordinary, until they moved a little, or smiled? That’s it. An esthetically perfectly symmetric proportioned individual is so very rare, it’s hard to look away and not be amazed at it enough to Think. I had a medical specialist who had this, but you do get over it easily when it’s your Doctor. However, once she had to come in to see me at the Hospital and as soon as I saw her effect, we both laughed harder than anyone else. It was really funny in that situation, as they had no choice BUT to listen to her very intelligent mind and her assessments. But she had to look very serious as she spoke as most of her colleagues hadn’t recovered from her yet, at one point, she had to snap her fingers at the poor Doctor. I asked her how much of a burden it had been, and she said, “I had to demand respect as well as well as doubly earn it , while for every other physician, it came free with the degree.”

“The whole world which was always close to me, I just feel like I am always on the outside of the world.” 11:00 Dysfunction family, mother passed away early, became an orphan, chose to marry at 16 for more stability, out of work later had no roof to stay under, “I was hungry.” She had to post for nude. She took time to to night school to learn more about history and literature. 24:00 spent her free time at school and night classes 26:29 “I am the blonde.” When she was told she is not a star 34:44 “Public scares me like a mob.” She is not just a sex symbol she is actually well read intelligent and appreciative beautiful person. She just had this strong unstoppable drive to be an actress. That’s mesmerizing. What you desire to be? What make you feel responsible for? “We are not machine. We feel things.” “I cannot go as fast as other people. I would not dare to get a cold.” “I am working toward 1 thing, giving performance.” She was late because she wanted to be prepared, showing the best side of her to the public. She still kept her happy cheerful spirit at the peak of her fame, like a little girl, so innocent and naive. She knew what the public needed and she gave it all but she also firmly held her ground and boundary when she could.

Her eyebrows, eyes, lips, even nostrils all had their own autonomy and each would express some strong emotion... at times in sharp conflict among themselves, at times in complete orchestral harmony. That was unique. And such a perfectly photogenic, luminous face. She was more of a celestial sculpture sent from heaven than an actress. Her legacy? All other aspiring goddesses continue to be measured against her.

I used to think a person only had the flexibility to control more than one or two reflexes that move facial features independently (except low-toned individuals) until I met a person who showed me how they would only smile with her mouth purposely. That doesn’t require as much dexterity as what you’ve described, but to me, it’s enough to believe someone can do it - especially if they are serious about their careers as Actors.

She deserved so much better, not the users, but that's why Hollyweird is

Her honesty is simple and shared by many. 🌹💋🌺🕊

I sit watch these videos for hours.. I love Marilyn Monroe! She's so beautiful and has a body like no one I've ever seen.. She walks like a beautiful butterfly and sounds like an angel..

Strong and down to earth human being, many of us can learn from her.

She fought a lot in her life

My gosh she was so beautiful even as a child.

Clearly she was abused. Heart-breaking.

It's like time traveling through her own words. All she wanted was to be loved. RIP

She was so right about mental health, being compassionate and taking care of yourself, like when she said she needed to be prepared for her parts. The film industry is very abusive up to this day. I've seen recently interviews with actors and actresses saying they can't fall sick at work...

She comes across as warm, witty, intelligent & articulate. After such a tough childhood too. Its so sad her life ended when things were looking up in her career (she'd been rehired for Something's Got to Give) & she'd told friends she was remarrying Joe.

She is so sweet. A real icon of that time and the best Hollywood star of all times. The most beautiful American woman who was so attractive that she could leave no one indifferent

Beautiful! Finally in Marilyn's own words. What a great documentary! Well done! I'm glad that you doing it via her interview all viewers are able to see that she was not only sweet and beautiful inside and out but that she IS also intelligent and had a clue about things in life that people now days don't. I agree with all of her opinions. Notice I say "she is" because her spirit lives on. One thing I wish you hadn't put in the film was that she died of an overdose. Maybe you could have added,"by the hands of another" since back then they tried to insinuate it was suicide then later maybe accidental overdose. Our sweet Marilyn was murdered. But with all the evidence that has surfaced that proves she was murdered, its a shame the ones responsible are no longer alive so they can't be punished or pay for what they did. She knew too much and they used her like she was nothing, to be discarded like a piece of trash. Well, "Whats done in the dark will be brought to the light" and God is dealing with them, while Marilyn is a shining Angel basking in Gods light. Shine on Marilyn, We Love You!

Heartily agree. I’ve got a fantastic book by Donald H Wolfe called The Assassination of Marilyn Monroe, and there is way too much evidence for her death to have been a suicide.

I so agree with you, although I'm surprised Americans can't put 2 and 2 together and see it was not the Kennedys but a much more powerful force, the ones that murdered the Kennedys also, not long after. I'm really surprised most people think it was the Kennedys. Then who murdered the Kennedys and why? They don't ask that.

What a beautiful mind and heart. I love how most of this narration is not about Marilyn Monroe, it is mostly about Norma Jeane herself. Speaking with her Heart, giving us a glimpse of the beautiful spirit she truly was. 👑✨💓.

Her story makes me cry 😢 poor little thing I have a daughter and I couldnt imagine her going through all that 💔

2:22 - Why in a world would you say to a kid "Don't call me mother..."?! I don't get it! If a kid, any kid, came up to me saying "mama", I would have replied "hi, sweety" and just hugged the kid.

That's the first time I realize that she was a highly intelligent woman.

Education is only a small part of being intelligent. Lots of generally stupid people out there with PhD's. She was as smart as a whip, learning through trials and tribulation and from what others wrongly put her through. She was as bright as the glow that emanated from her and her intellect was as gorgeous as her smile. If I had the chance to spend an evening talking with Marilyn Monroe or Einstein, I'd have to choose Marilyn.

folkosire I'll tell you something a silly person does not survive big challenges in life. There's textbook intelligence and there's simply natural intelligence.

she was very articulate.

I couldn’t find this video for a VERY long time! It boosts my mood every time I watch it, been doing in since 2017! So happy it’s on KZread again!

While most actresses back then were imitating fake English accents like "my dahling", she was out there being all American girl and being honest about her origins.

To never have had a mother is traumatising. I can relate. Such a pity she never had a chance at being a mother herself. It is a wonderful experience.

Marilyn was a gental soul who was smart and funny. She was not given credit for her emence intellect. Her pretty face diguised an amazing mind. She is still owed a lifetime achievement award by the Motion Picture Industry.

This is a treasure! It's Really precious to hear Marilyn talking...Telling us her life story. Marilyn's voice make me feel with an incredible piece, you know? She had this angel voice, very calm, calm that keeps me wanting to hear her over and over again! It seems like I'm a baby and Marilyn is calmimg me down, putting me to sleep with this angel voice. I think this was one of the details that made me love her even more. And thanks to this amazing channel I am able to watch and listen to her as I never expect i would...Marilyn Monroe Video Archives: You are very special to me! Keep going with this wonderful work!

Well done. No extrapolations, no conjecture. Just the lady in all her fragility and clarity.

There was something about her that is haunting. Her sad childhood defined her. She was so beautiful and intelligent as well. She's someone who I would have loved to give a big hug to and have known. RIP MARILYN.. YOU WERE SPECIAL.

Her sad childhood is only partially her she should not only be known as the victim. She would not want you to victimize her!!!🤬😤🥵

That feeling of nobody understanding you. Of not fitting in. I finally understand. When a joke is made and everyone laughs except you. When you see everyone bond around you and make friends and relationships, yet you feel no bond to anybody. I really finally understand that feeling of having a circle of friends, and you being the external commentator. You really feel like an outsider. She was excluded because of her success and different way of seeing the world, while i was excluded because i'm from a different culture to those around me. I used to disdain people like her that talk about being lonely and the cliche of being misunderstood. I truely and completely understand that feeling of not being a part of the group that surrounds you. It really burns a hole in your soul.

Marilyn Monroe was the best of the best forever n forever

If I were born same year like Marilyn Monroe and I’m a guy, I will do my best to be noticed by her and I will show and make her feel the love that she truly deserve. She’s been through a lot since she was born til adulthood, i feel so sad and angered to how her life has been. She was too broken inside and the people surrounding her that time did not do anything to save her from her misery. I noticed how similar her voice is with Princess Diana, how sincere, sweet and angelic.

I remember the day that Marilyn Monroe died like it was yesterday. I was playing in the backyard and my Mother had the radio on. I was only 10 years old and I felt so Sad. I looked at Mom and she was crying. Then we both were crying, me in her lap. I didn't know that Marilyn was an orphan. We lost a very Special and Beautiful Lady that day. 💔💞💞💞💞💖

Her genuine vulnerability let’s us relate to her after all these years. She let us in and let’s us know it’s ok to be vulnerable and not be perfect . We all see a part of Marilyn in each of us. Maybe even relate to the broken parts and can sympathize/empathize. These movie stars these days act like they are perfect it is all about image. But with Marilyn she’s herself but had to play the game . Rest in Heaven 🌹
