est. in 90s Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) I could see this negatively impacting Ana's career and public perception going forward. She needs to pick better roles from this point onward, it's imperative that she does, because this role alone is going to do a lot of damage to her career with nothing to show for it (no awards, critical acclaim or smash hit, just disgust for accepting such a disgusting role about a woman she claims to admire. No one would agree to take part in an exploitative project of this nature about someone they admired and respected).

There's no way she took on that role, with all she had to do, thinking it would result in it being panned and hated. She most likely thought this would be some big, acclaimed award season thing like Jackie, and the standing ovation at Venice probably deluded her even more Edited October 4, 2022 by Khal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khal Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Also, why isn't the author of this getting lashed? I know she labelled it as fiction, but It feels weird that you can basically make up stories about someone's life and profit from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanRickman1946 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I always thought Marilyn played up the baby doll coquettish vibe for the movies. She was business minded and knew what worked. I didn't know she behaved that way 100% in real life. The movie makes her out to be brain damaged. PANNED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bync Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Watched it last night. I liked it, definitely a lot of questionable and incredibly uncomfortable moments, but overall I enjoyed it. Amazing performance by Ana de Armas, and outstanding cinematography. I liked the sound design too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was business minded and knew what worked. I didn't know she behaved that way 100% in real life. The movie makes her out to be brain damaged. PANNED. Marilyn was a recognized female pioneer in the film business at a time when the studio system ruled and even the biggest stars were signed to highly one-sided contracts that ensured the studio could dictate their projects and pay, and could keep them on contract for long periods of time without work (for example, if a star rebelled, the punishment was that they would not be cast). Marilyn was grossly underpaid in the early phase of her career because she had signed one of these contracts before she became a star. In 1955, she said "**** you" to 20th Century Fox when they kept offering her "dumb blonde" parts and founded her own production studio - she was the first woman to do. When she later signed back with Fox, she had unprecedented creative control - over projects, directors, script and co-stars (her contract even stipulated that all her films were to be shot in colour, a provision which she elected to forgo for creative reasons for Some Like It Hot and The Misfits). Historians should give Marilyn a lot of credit for accelerating the dissolution of the studio system, which ultimately collapsed by the mid-1960's. Stars were then free to choose their own projects, and to negotiate their pay and other details such as creative control, and most importantly, were not obliged to work for only one studio. In 1962, when Fox fired Marilyn from her final, uncompleted film, her co-star Dean Martin refused to proceed without her. Peter Levathes, who was head of production, visited her at her home the week she died to negotiate her rehiring. She had leverage and negotiated a significant increase in salary ($1M for a two-film deal rather than $100k for one). Levathes later called her an astute businesswoman. Interestingly, Marilyn was playing a mother for the first time and was also using her natural voice in the film, in what was a highly intentional shift in her image. The film would have featured the first nude scene from a major female star. Marilyn had also evolved to a highly chic early-1960's aesthetic. So much of Marilyn's public image was heavily and intentionally curated by her, and as a result, in death she can be anything to anyone - hence a film like Blonde being produced. The raw footage (below) from her final, uncompleted film (ironically titled "Somethings Got to Give"), where she does take after take and banters with the production crew and cast, probably gives us the closest possible glimpse of what she was really like.
