Probably Marilyn is one of the best 20TH century actresses ,
She played in many movies, at the beginning as a background actress and then, when she became an international and ultra famous actress, playing a star role. Many people considered her just like a dumb blonde, but she always declared her skills also like a dramatic actress. Not many people know that Marilyn was scared about playing in public, or with a film crew, sometimes she was stuttering , so she employed many people to help her in this insecurity.
Marilyn was also an insecure woman, maybe because of her childhood, in fact her mum was affected by paranoid schizophrenia, so Marilyn had to move many times, without having a stable position, and she has
never met her biological father (that’s why her surname was “Baker”). All of these facts influenced a lot her life, growing without stability probably caused her inability in having a stable relationship, /// Marilyn got married 3 times and she had many other relationships too. In 1955 she began to see a Los Angeles psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson. He later recalled that during this time she frequently complained of insomnia, and told Greenson that she visited several /// doctors to obtain what Greenson considered an excessive variety of drugs. He concluded that she was progressing to the point of addiction, but also noted that she could give up the drugs for extended periods without suffering any withdrawal symptoms. And during the takes of “THE MISFITS”, she was frequently ill and unable to perform, and away from the influence of Dr. Greenson, she had resumed her consumption of sleeping pills and alcohol. In August Monroe was rushed to Los Angeles where she was hospitalized for ten days. Newspapers reported that she had been near death, although the nature of her illness was not disclosed. Marilyn Monroe had two secret relationships with the most influential person of that period, John and Robert Kennedy. At that time John Kennedy was the President of U.S.A., so his relation with Miss Monroe was very dangerous for his career look that he was married and Marilyn was in love with Mr. Miller. Many people can attest this liaison; indeed Marilyn confided this secret to some close friends, like Jean Marcilly. One day, Marilyn gave to J. F. Kennedy a golden Rolex as a gift, with a lovely phrase engraved on it, but he decided to offer it to an employee. The President drifted away from Monroe, because this relationship could ruin his political campaign. When the married President had to break off their affair, Monroe became even
more depressed, and then turned to Robert Kennedy, Mr. President’s brother, and he was her last lover. Marilyn’s biographers remember that at that time she declared to be pregnant, but without knowing the identity of baby’s father; few weeks later Miss Monroe had an abortion in Mexico with the help from an American doctor. Marilyn’s biographers believe that she was compelled to aborting, look that maybe Bob Kennedy was the father of that baby.Marilyn Monroe died on 5th august in 1962 at the age of 36, in her bedroom, after the post-mortem examination, the cause of her death was recorded as "acute barbiturate poisoning", resulting from a "probable suicide". Many theories, including murder circulated about the circumstances of her death and the timeline after the body was found. Some conspiracy theories involved John and Robert Kennedy, while other theories suggested CIA or Mafia complicity. It was reported that President Kennedy was the last person Monroe called.
