MARILYN MONROE. She was the ultimate blonde bombshell and, in many ways, even 60 years after her death, she still is. Hollywoods pin-up and its most enduring sex symbol remains a source of fascination and the subject of countless documentaries and films. This week, the latest, Blonde, based on the Pulitzer Prize-shortlisted novel by Joyce Carol Oates, is released, starring Ana de Armas.
So why is it, all these years later, that we are still unpicking this womans life, still looking for new ways to understand her? It is perhaps because Monroes story has become one of Hollywoods most engaging cautionary tales. Her premature, and arguably mysterious death, aged 36, established Monroe as a tragic figure; a symbol of the exploitative studio system and its ingrained misogyny. As our mores change, so our preoccupation with her evolves. Post #MeToo, we see her as yet another woman abused by powerful men. In a more outwardly and nuanced feminist landscape, we also see an actress trying desperately hard to be taken seriously, and not judged solely on her looks.
