When I was 13 years old, I fell in love with Marilyn Monroe. I felt sorry for her because she was talented, but most people only ever saw her as a sex symbol and wanted to use her for their own gains. She never felt confident in herself and was difficult to work with because of it. She was prescribed medication to help her sleep, help her wake up, help her with anxiety. Her loneliness, self doubt, and medication ultimately were her downfall.
If you watch her movies, especially Some Like It Hot, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, The Seven Year Itch, and How to Marry a Millionaire, you see a beautiful woman with a great comedic delivery and a willingness to look stupid for the laugh.
