5/10
A tale of two stories
10 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
The first half of the documentary was good (7 out of 10 stars), a retrospective of Marilyn Monroe's life and career. Good, but nothing new that is not covered in any one of the many other documentaries.

The second half of the documentary focuses on the circumstances of her death and the aftermath, as the director interviews several people close to Marilyn at the time. I was left wondering how he would have telephone interviews with these people, and yet have video recordings of their end of the conversation.

The director went to great pains to build a case against the Kennedy's for both her death and cover-up. Ultimately, he crashes his own theory, so, what was the point? 3 out of 10 for the second half for an average of 5.
