She basically said they either lacked the background or the foreground. My one quibble though is "Marilyn Monroe" per se was a character that Marilyn the actress played. by 1962 Marilyn was tired of her. In the Richard Meryman interview there is but a trace of the rinky dink voice instead we glimpse a sensitive woman who shhots from the hip. smart yet a little wobbly. My advice to any actress aspiring to play Marilyn. First make sure you morphology is similar, Marilyn's teeth setting was very particular, slightly horsey, without the right teeth setting all lip movements will look contrived and grotesque. In the past actresses have made the mistake (Mira Sorvino) in particular played Marilyn like some pathetic sap. Marilyn had spunk and oomph. Most of all play her with a sense of fun and wonder. Sam Shaw once told me "she was dazzling" why? because she was dazzled.RideHannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07345016527937080692noreply@blogger.com
