The Netflix movie took someone who was exploited and abused her whole life and further capitalized on a frail sensitive soul who had been treated so poorly during her short existence.
The idea marilyn was treated poorly is also manufactured. It was famously said the number of orphanages she's said to have endured as a child grew from 2-3 to 13 during her career because it was a good selling point. I do believe she acted all the way through but she also was caught up in the price of fame she believed would bring her salvation. I do believe it's the most damaged and neglected among us that really want fame.
That's really interesting! Haven't heard that before, but it makes total sense from a PR standpoint to inflate her rags to riches story. Thanks for sharing :)
