IMDB

Marilyn Monroe travels to England to co-star in Laurence Olivier’s “The Prince and the Showgirl.”  She is dealing with an “illness,” a pill addiction and a troubled marriage to playwright Arthur Miller.  Laurence Olivier has no patience for her diva attitude and has much trouble directing her.
A pretty solid biopic about a short slice of Marilyn Monroe’s life and her brief friendship/relationship with Colin Clark.  Michelle Williams is very good as Marilyn Monroe.  Very glamorous.  Worth a watch.


7.5/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
