Blonde

The stunning saga of Marilyn Monroe's life, begins with her traumatic upbringing as Norma Jean: the damage inflicted by a psychotic mother, the absence of any father, the devastation of four years in an orphanage and betrayal in a foster home.

At times self-absorbed and frightened, Monroe could also be tough, outspoken and vulgar. Her notorious perfectionism is her shield against the ridicule and failure she continually fears. Monroe's stormy marriages to Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller reveal her insatiable need for security and love.
