Why watch the movie My Week With Marilyn?
"Marilyn Monroe is one of the greatest icons in Hollywood history, and many of the films and writings about her life attempt to encompass the entirety of her legend. Thanks to My Week with Marilyn (dramatizing only a brief but turbulent period of her life) being an intimate and powerful drama about Marilyn Monroe's stay in London to film The Prince and the Showgirl alongside Laurence Olivier (portrayed by Kenneth Branagh). The screenplay is based on the books My Week with Marilyn and The Prince, the Showgirl and I by Colin Clark (portrayed onscreen by Eddie Redmayne), who was a production assistant during the troubled shoot. It is a solid drama with great performances (Michelle Williams and Kenneth Branagh were nominated for an Oscar and BAFTA, and she won a Golden Globe for her work), and the story offers the perspective of an outsider on a moment that marked the start of decline for Monroe, both professionally and personally."
