I truly hated the way they focused on portraying Marilyn as an object rather than acknowledging her as a human being.

I started watching this because I recently saw the film 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,' and I knew some stories and rumors surrounding Marilyn's death. I had already seen the film 'Blonde' by Andrew Dominic, which, by the way, is disgusting; please don't watch that.
**

Anyways, I was mesmerized by Marilyn's acting in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.' And I certainly hated how her character was portrayed as dumb blonde ; Cause to be honest her character had so much potential, and I truly believe that if they hadn’t portrayed her just as a “dumb blonde” her talent could have been more exploited.
**

So, I wanted to do my research on how she was perceived as an actress. And I'm not an expert, but I love watching films and have seen multiple actresses in various roles. And I think I know how to recognize natural talent, and Marylin was truly something special.
**

Watching this made me realize that no one ever appreciated her for her talent; she was seen as a sex symbol. Despite being pretty, talented, and smart, no one gave her the chance to show that, even years after her death. People are still so interested in her death, but can't we focus on her as an amazing human being with a cultural impact and a remarkable legacy?
**

The documentary, or whatever it was, portrayed Marilyn's life in a bleak, frustrating, and degrading way. They talk about the people around her and the rumors, but no one gives importance to her as a person. Yes, she was Marilyn Monroe, one of the most iconic people, but she was also a person with feelings and a difficult backstory. People are desperate to portray her life as something dramatic, not as something human.
**

I was interested in her actual life, feelings, perspective, and path as an actor. She was a human and a talented actress, but there's nothing about that out there because nobody's paying attention to it. Everyone cares about rumors, her death, and who she dated, and that upsets me.
**
**
So yeah STOP doing documentaries about her death and making it seem like that was all that was important about Marilyn Monroe's life. It wasn't; I would love to see a film or documentary about her life as an actress, with the ups and downs, but through her own eyes. Maybe we'll never get that, so let's stop exploiting Marilyn, let her rest in peace, and remember her as the talented and brilliant woman and actress she truly was.
