Hi to one and all on PF ,
With life in general seeming to get in the way of everything it seems to have calmed down giving me a chance to get back doing what I like ...sharing a bit of Resin with you all in Reviews , and what better one to start with than a release from Life Miniatures .
What is it we will be looking at ...an iconic subject has been chosen by Sang-Eon from Life Miniatures it is of course Marilyn Monroe
What can be said about a woman born in 1926 on June at Norma Jeanne Mortenson whose mother worked as a film cutter at the RKO studios who was widowed and mentally ill , putting her child into a series of foster homes , not a good start but she was a fighter and eventually found fame in films and after a number of small parts hit the big time launching her to international stardom in the film in 1953 called Gentleman Prefer Blondes , this lead to in 1955 The Seven Year Itch as well as getting married and divorcing the baseball player Jo DiMaggio in the same year of 1955 , marrying the playwright Arthur Miller in 1956.
Playing in the film Bus Stop in 1956 she showed she could play dramatic roles , she had a year off in 1958 returning to the studios to star in the comedy Some Like It Hot alongside Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis .
Making a total of only 30 films in year life she did I feel just wanted to be loved , this she certainly was the case when as part of the USO tour she entertained the troops in Korea in 1954 and this is the chosen depiction of Marilyn in Life Miniatures release.
In August 1962 , a day that began with threatening calls to her on the 4th , being visited the next day by her doctor who is quoted as saying "he thought she felt rejected by those close to her" on the morning of the 5th she was found dead in her bed as a result of a drug overdose ...a so so sad and lonely end to a beautiful woman and a true legend.........
