Marilyn Monroe: Was it Acting Or Just Beauty?

In this episode, Marilyn Monroe's acting talents are highlighted through three of her more experimentally different films: "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes:" a fifties classic featuring the iconic "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend," "Bus Stop:" the film where Marilyn's persona is tested by showing all aspects of her character; sometimes even the sides that oppose the way men treat her, and finally the western from the early sixties, "The Misfits:" where you can fully see how Marilyn exists outside of her persona (this was her last film). This episode also discusses the new film about Marilyn's life, "Blonde," and how some of her irreplaceable charisma was lost in the movie. Hope you guys enjoy it!
