  • @SpiritSeekras yeh..Fame didnt make her happy at all. She craved love and acceptance all her life. She had an awful childhood, her mother was mentally ill, her father denied her. It troubled her all her life. So her need for fame was driven by that need to be loved. She was by fans as Marilyn Monroe, but its so sad as Norma jeane she died alone. She really was an underated actress, and people only saw the so called "ditzy blonde". She was very smart and intelligent women. a genius comedienne.

  • when did she get an accent? lol

  • The only thing Mira's got going for her is the blonde hair also she did a good job at speaking in the same soft sultry breathy way Marilyn did

  • rip marilyn

  • They should do another Marilyn film today with Scarlett Johansen, Gwen Stefani, or Charleze Theron as Marilyn and with a much better script. Why the hell is Marilyn being haunted by Norma Jean? True Norma Jean was the person and Marilyn was the image, but can we ge a real biography script please...and not this Dissociative Identity Disorder bull shit!

  • perfect voice... thats it.

  • she may not look like her but mira got the voice absolutely perfect.

  • she looks nothing like her!!!!

  • who is girl who is dying with the car ? Marilyn has killed a young girl ??? can someone EXPLAIN TO ME PLEASE ?

  • @jutafrocant No she is killing Norma Jean, her old self and becoming Marilyn Monroe. It's symbolic of her transformation from a young unwanted abused girl into one of the most beautiful, popular, and glamorous of stars.

  • @ThePharaoho oh thanks ok, i understand now, i don't speak english, that's why i didn't understood that, now i know :) but do you know what is the title of this film ? i search it in french...

  • @jutafrocant in English this film is titled "Norma Jean and Marilyn." I'm don't know about the French title.

  • Good Grief, who made this movie? That accent has got to go, worst acting ever.

  • True....when that camer turned around...I was like REALLY!!! I saw this movie when it first came out. I think it should have been new marilyn last and the other one first.

  • She looks like a bloke in drag! Like a cheap back-street drag queen impersonator. "I don't belong here" she says at 04:12 no shit. She did the best she could though. Not really her fault. Just the casting director's.

  • Sorry, Mira Sorvino looks nothing like Marilyn Monroe. She doesn't have the right eye color, face shape, features, anything really. She can't just put someone in a blond wig and dress and expect them to emanate Marilyn. I think Mira is a terrific actress and I've always thought she was extremely attractive, but this was VERY poor casting.

  • Wow, in what world does this lady look like Marilyn? 

  • i have nothing against Mira. she is very likeable but Does Not make a good Marilyn Manroe! i would have gone with Scarlett Jo, Naomi Watts, or Christina Applegate. I think even Tara Reid would have made a better Marilyn LMAOOOOO! Horrible casting!

  • Look at pictures of Naomi Watts. She actually looks very similar to her. She was in talk a book to movie based on Marilyn Monroe.

  • "marilyn monroe" ... lush xx

  • no, no, no, not even close to MM!

  • whats the name of this movie?

  • @pisces2able Norma Jean & Marilyn

  • Es una interpretacion horrible de Marilyn. La voz esta bien, pero no se parece en nada Sorry for not write in English.

  • Marilyn didn't look so different from Norma Jeane in reality, just the hair and makeup. And this movie is so unwatchable because Ashley Judd and Mira Sorvino neither look or sound like her at all. It's terrible. MM would be turning in her grave if she saw this.

  • Who was that who ran over her ?

  • smoking is gross

  • Hollywood should make this movie again but with a better actress and right the real story not this shit, in this movie they made her look like a dumb ugly slud and she wasnt

  • idont get why norma got ran over ?

  • @AmayaPapaya40 That was marylin running over her former self. It didn't actually happy that is just the directors way of showing you that marylin was erasing her past and throwing it away. That is why she developed multi personality disorder because you can't just get rid of memories they come back to haunt you. Her memories came back to haunt her in the form of her former self and the drugs just made it seem worse.

  • @AmayaPapaya40

    i think it was symbolic.

    Still that was some awful casting.

  • She sounds just like marilyn most of the time. Thats why they probably casted her and no one else

  • @vetaxskankface Have you ever seen Marilyn do an interview? She doesn't talk like that at all.

  • Is that how they do a nose surgery? Lol

  • Love this movie !! thank you for sharing !!

  • Dear Hollywood: STOP DOING F-ING MOVIES ABOUT MARILYN!!!!!

    No actress can replace her!!! Marilyn was unique!!!

  • the script for this movie was really good! but damn the fucking blonde actress who plays marilyn ruined it for me to this point!

  • I know why Part 5 isn't here too!

  • I agree with you ... SHE IS NOTHING AT ALL LIKE M.M

  • i just hate how hollywood always portrays Marilyn as a total nutjob.

  • i Liked this movie but it would have been way way better if it was a different marilyn, my mother and i agreed she's wack!!!!

  • I don't get the scene with the car at 2:39. I am not native english, so i don't understand everything well. What is that part about? Or is it just "metafory" that Marilyn killed Norma Jean?

  • @JanaSklibova you got it, metafore for the "death" of norma jean.

  • Dont know if this has been said before but she was not named after the President Monroe it was after her grandmother Della Monroe. I wish they would make a good movie about her its such a shame.

  • @pepamint83 Yes, she was named by Marilyn Miller and her mother's maiden name. She reminded Ben Lyon Jean Harlow and M. Miller. I don¨t like movies like this much. They usually change a lot of facts.

  • She never spoke with that dumb cute voice in privacy. There is little document about her, and few word said by herself, she sounded intellectually.

    Type this into search bar -Rare 1964 Interview with Norma Jeane's Foster Parents-

  • a peice of dead cartilage was removed from her nose which was a breathing hazard. she didnt have a chin implant, her hair line was plucked and laser treatment was used hair wouldnt grow back. her front teeth were straightened. her eyebrows were thinned out and penciled. there are NO medical records that exist of marilyn ever having plastic surgery. Marilyn was told in the mid 1940's to smile differently because her top lip would raise abover her teeth and gums. She was a NATURAL BEAUTY.

  • God, Mira Sorvino has such a STUPID voice.

  • neither actress looks like marilyn monroe.. the best actress who ever played marilyn was actress catherine hicks> she looked so much like monroe.

  • this is so funny. ashley judd is too pretty to fool the audience that she needed plastic surgery. her acting is good as norma jean, but no one is going to believe that THIS norma jean needed surgery to turn into THAT marilyn. No. doesn't work. totally awkward. I ended up finding marilyn not charming at all, and only waited for the norma jean parts. I'm supposed to feel sympathy for both.

  • omg she dosent even look like her in nothing

  • i HATED the actress who played marilyn!!! omg WORST casting EVER wtf!? thousands of actress in L.A. and that ONE got CHOSEN? WTF

    i liked the first actress alot Better!! they should have made her Blonde and go with it, damnet

  • Worst movie i have ever seen!! So many things that happen in this movie are't true

  • Worst move i have ever seen

  • poppie motgomery is the best mm lookalike

  • @feefee198423 of course

  • haha, the hollywood guy didnt come up with the monroe part, marilyn did, it was her mothers maiden name.

  • she doesnt look like monroe at all. probably the worst casting i have ever seen.

  • @bettypager7 She doesn't look like her, doesn't sound like her. Marilyn is known for her full lips and curves... Mira has thin lips and a really thin body.. Ashley Judd looks more like Marilyn than Mira Sorvino.

  • @bettypager7 yep... that's true but her voice is pretty close.

  • @oddsource Yeh her accent isnt too bad...

  • as far as i know the one who advised her for the name Monroe was her aunt Grace!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why did they change actresses, Ashley Judd was doing great. I can't take this one seriously now.

  • Ashley Judd should have been Marilyn, and Mira Sorvino should have been Norma Jean.

    Mira is kind of a wacktress anyway...

  • @sirsniffy

    WRONG

  • @sirsniffy soo true. all they had to do was switch. because sorvino looks more like norma jean and judd looks like marilyn because her facial features are more delicate.

  • This whole film was based on a "fictional biography." It falls under the category of Fiction and should not be taken seriously. It is factually incorrect and downright absurd at times.

    I appreciate you posting this, but just want people to know they should dig a little deeper if they really want to know more about who Marilyn really was.

  • i hate what Hollywood done to marilyn....Hollywood kills her...

  • Noone can emulate Marilyn...it comes from the inside, not just the looks...marilyn had an innocence about her that no actress then or now can copy...the best marilyn is marilyn herself.

  • scarlett johansson is the best look alike hands down but still nothing to marilyn in comparison

  • wow she is horrible at immitating marilyn monroe. Her voice is horrible.

  • 2:57 what happen there ? :O should it be like that marilyn was hit by the car? what was the story behind that? I Wanna know :O

    she is so beautiful :( RIP

  • @DayNnite101 No, she wasn't hit by a car. The whole film is based on a fictional account of Marilyn's life. It was just a metaphor the "filmmaker's" threw in.

  • who thought mira sorvino could do M.M? lol!

  • ooooooooh noooo

  • mira was the worst choice for marilyn...scarlett johanson even looks more like her than she does!!!!!! poor casting!

  • Mira is talented, but she physically was TOTALLY wrong for this part. of Marilyn.

  • I agree. Nobody can play Marilyn. I also feel bad that Marilyn never had any children. So she didn't pass on her good genes. It's gone forever!

  • The woman that pops up around 4:55 looks more like Marilyn.

  • part 1:09-1:11 wat the hell was that was there no anaesthesia back then?

  • because she never had surgery it's portraid in this movie like they didn't use aneasthesia

  • i cant fine part 5

  • She did have plastic surgery. Compare pictures of her as a 20 year old model to when she got the short, platinum hair and became a big star. She had chin work, plus a minor nose job. She was ALWAYS beautiful, but she DID have work done. There were people who knew her who corroborated the fact.

  • Who corroborated that she underwent surgery? I'm not disputing it because I think she did but as far as I know none of her friends mentioned it.

  • I'm not going to dig through my books to come up with names, but I know "Goddess: The Secret Lives of Marilyn Monroe" and the biography Donald Spoto wrote talk about her plastic surgeries.

  • I think this girl plays it really good but her looks are a far cry from Marilyn's... Look at her close up at 3:07, she doesn't look like Marilyn at all....

  • Mira Sorvino isn't suppose to look like Marilyn, she's suppose to look like Norma Jean (pre-Marilyn Monroe) and if you've seen early photos you'd realize that Norma Jean looked a lot different than she did as Marilyn. Also, bio films aren't suppose to be Saturday Night Live skits, the actors are suppose to capture the essence of the character (Anthony Hopkins as NIXON is a good example). Finally Mira Sorvino looked real cute in her nude scenes. So did Ashley Judd.

  • She looked like a different person as 'Marilyn' for the same reason every actress does--cosmetic styling completely transforms appearance. What bothers me about this film is that it breaks down Norma Jeane and Marilyn into two separate people, which is ridiculous. The only time she ever became another person was on-screen and in public; her personality and appearance evolved like everyone's does, yet this film seems to suggest internally she was forever a young woman in "Marilyn's" shoes.

  • Why was her life aways played out in movies?

  • Comment removed

  • what the hell? Is this a movie commentary are the back issue of some slut rag? GROW UP!!!!!!!!

  • marilyn had plastic surgery, compare her nose, as norma jean, the very first pictures.

  • Britney spears would be perfect to play Marilyn. Not only do they look alike but no woman understands what Marilyn went through better than Britney

  • I certainly hope you're joking. If you're serious, I fear for humanity.

  • MARILYN! MARILYN! MARILYN! <3 you.... R.I.P

  • haha really funny that you should threaten me. You just got reported for harrassment... :) By the way bitch Im not a lesbian im a GAY MAN. Oh, and by the way I don't fear witchcraft I'll shove my foot right up its ass. Have a nice day you worthless piece of shit. You are a sorry excuse for a human being, and I regret having to share the same atmosphere as you. BTW YOU ARE SICK for having fetishes about dead corpses. Sick fuck.

  • A. I don't believe in your stupid witchcraft you can fuck yourself. I have the power of righteousness and goodness on my side, more than your stupid fucking witchcraft can do so shove your crystal ball where the sun don't shine. B. Get a life. C. Have respect for the dead, and for someone that will mean more than you ever will. MARILYN MONROE FOREVER!

    p.s - learn how to spell sweetie.

  • the idea about this film is great, but there are so many differences between this actress and Marilyn. what's more Marilyn's stile was absolutely different and she has never had a plastic surgery.

  • Precisely Marilyn Monroe never had plastic surgery.

    Haters and liars try to make you believe she did.

    And the photo's they mentioned when I was younger I had a different nose than I have now. THAT DOESN'T mean someone had surgery.

    Believe what you want but I know the truth and that is SHE NEVER HAD SURGERY!

  • She did. They MADE her do her nose and chin. They said it wouldn't get her anywhere if she didn't do it. It's not about haters and liars.

  • No one made her do anything, she was recommended surgery and underwent it to improve her chances.

  • Marilyn had plastic surgery. It doesn't make you a "hater" to state this undisputed fact. Her nose was a lot wider and 'cute' when she was a young model, compared to the very slender round top nose she had when she became blonde.

  • yes she did

  • That definetely is not Marilyn Monroe !

  • Uhnn , she did have plastic surgery Compare her chin before and after. What's terrible about this scene/movie is the acting.  Wow!

  • Gah! I hate this part so much! Norma NEVER had plastic surgery (If they did I'm pretty sure they never did it with the patient awake and with no pain relief) Monroe was her mothers maiden name. The Girl who plays marilyn can NOT do the accent it would've been way better if they didnt bother i with it. They make Norma out to be insane. She didnt take drugs in the early days.

  • Notice its the fat bitches who can't get laid that are always commenting on the gays and lesbians. Sad. Sad. Sad.

  • Comment removed

  • "when's it's over you won't even recognize yourself?" For heaven's sake, Norma Jeane/Marilyn was a successful model! Her surgeries refined her look, but hardly made her look like a different person.

    She's pre-surgery in 1948's "Ladies of the Chrous"--essentially Norma Jeane with very blonde hair. But she is recognizably "Marilyn. "

  • Ashley Judd is just soo much more prettier than this ugly chick! What were they thinking? This movie's casting SUCKS!

  • Why in the world did they change actresses? Thats so stupid. They should have kept Ashley.

  • None of us have anything to "get over" as we are neither ashamed nor uncomfortable with being Marilyn's fans. You on the other hand, seem to be perpetually irritated by a woman who died 50 years ago and for whatever reason are bothered to the extent that you need to let your opinion be known to all her fans. Damn, it must be embarrassing to spend so much time worrying over someone you think is an 'ugly cunt'.

  • An ugly cunt? God whoever that was...

  • She looks nothing like her. She's got the voice down, though.

  • i see it some what in the nose and a bit in the mouth but and i hate to sound rude she has the wrong body. I agree though she has the voice.

  • No, it's not rude to say. Marilyn had quite a body; it was her trademark along with her platinum blonde hair. My grandmother calls her "the curvy lady." :))

  • um why isnt she asleep during surgery?

  • they used local anesthetic which means the part that the surgery is done on is numbed so they dont feel anything and shes in a relaxed state

  • none of these actress look like monroe. . . how lazy can casting get?

  • Could you post the part where Marilyn is working on her singing voice or any clips of Mira singing from the film? Thanks in advance.

  • Marilyn is from actress Marilyn Miller, a famous actress and Monroe is from her grandmother's name Della Monroe.I read this in a book about her.

  • yes she got monroe from her grandmother on her mothers side who she lived with with her mother before her mother was sent to the institution not from the president also they chose marylin from the actress like u said but this movie should have got its facts right

  • Marilyns mother had the name "marilyn" as her middle name.

  • and obviously you dumn people believe everything you read! this bitch was as fake as they come she was a manipulative ho who perfected the little girl shtick to manipulate men, give head and get ahead. sick bitch, dumb fans

  • your the sicko. show some respect to someone that will be remembered 100000000 times longer than you ever will.

  • Comment removed

  • mc1pc2nk3 go fuck yourself you jealous hooker. Marilyn Monroe is one of the greatest people to have ever lived. Show some respect for the dead and don't be jealous of the dead. Your probally butt ugly and desired by NO ONE.

  • it says in this vid that she got the name Marilyn Monroe off a singer...but i have her autobiography and in that it says they just suggested the name Marilyn and she went home and told her aunt and her aunt said it would go well with her moms maiden name which was Monroe

  • this Norma are beauttiful but ....!!!

  • i think she was more beautiful as Norma Jean...but we all know her as Marilyn...but in this movie Marilyn kills the true Norma...is sad

  • the actresses should have switched places. ashley has smaller facial features like marilyn after her transformation. but i dont think norma looked different enough to have had two different actresses play her anyway. hair, makeup and the nose where the main things. it just makes this movie look silly.

  • the lady in 5:05 in the bathroom looks like marilyn more

  • can't run from your past...

  • Ashley Judd looks more like Marilyn Monroe than Mira Sorvino.

  • This actress is ugly as hell and does not look like her at all ! But her voice kinda sounds like Marilyn's one.

  • yeah i agree...looks nothing like her!

  • cheeeeeezy!

  • yeah that was a metaphor n a good way to represent in a movie marilyn's strong wish to forget her pas and who she used to be as norma jean n one more thing: she was smarter then ppl think n yeah they had plastic surgery back then

  • I didnt know they had cosmetic surgery back then

  • Earlier even. Tho not of good quality.

    Both Al Jolson and Fannie Brice had nose jobs.

  • god you people are stupid. i too agree this movie doesnt have much fact in it, but i know almost all there is to know on this woman, the fact that they are so different is because in real life after her transformation (plastic surgery, hair cut and dyed, etc.) she looked like a totally different person.

  • i disagree on your comme on norma jean and marilyn you left on 2 months ago saying lyn looked like a differnt person after having her hair dy n exc she lookes the same. she was a very very bueitfull women.. to this day the most butifull women in the world!

  • WHAT THE HELL? This is an insult to sweet and charming marilyn monroe. She never had plastic surgery and she sure as hell never killed anyone! She was depressed but never physcotic. It's disgusting. Marilyn is rolling in her grave.

  • you dumb shit do you know anything about this woman, she did have plastic surgery do your research. and the killing someone part doesnt mean she killed someone its a metaphore stupid shes getting rid of the past forgetting norma jean ever existed LAMO!

  • Lol my girlfriend's name is Marilyn Madison!

  • This enrages me.

  • Wait! The real MArilyn never had plastic surgery!

  • yeah she did....read about her life...search documentaries...she had plastic surgey chin nose ..n maybe others...but she was beautiful even be4

  • yes she did

  • God thats such a pathetic lie. It was her mothers maiden name. god this movie is dumb.

  • What the hell is this??

    I've never even heard of this but they made Marilyn seem psycho...I really don't think she was psycho at all as they portrayed her...

    she just had a bit of an addiction problem at the end which was maybe why she was a bit silly.

  • this movie is disturbing

  • This movie is horrible, and barely based on fact at all.

  • I saw this film yesterday on TV and was terribly disappointed with the switch from the gorgeous Ashley Judd to the barely above average Mira Sorvino. I mean, both of of them are not facially nor bodily similar to Marilyn but Judd in on a beauty league similar to Marilyn Monroe, Mira Sorvinio does not, and the two Marilyn aren't even remotely similar.

  • Does anyone have the copy of that ORIGINAL first screen test??? I'm sure we would all love to see it...the one where she lights a cigarette and walks around the room....

  • Monroe was chosen because it was her mothers maiden name!

  • I'm sorry but she doesn't look ANYTHING like her. She is a good actress, but I can't take this seriously.
