When her husband was sent to the South Pacific, she began working in a munitions factory in Van Nuys, California. It was there that she was first discovered by a photographer. By the time Dougherty returned in , Monroe had a successful career as a model. That year, she signed her first movie contract. With the contract came a new name and image; she began calling herself "Marilyn Monroe" and dyed her hair blonde.
At first, Monroe wasn't initially considered to be star acting material. Her acting career didn't really take off until a few years later. With her breathy voice and hourglass figure, she would soon become one of Hollywood's most famous actresses. She proved her skill by winning various honors and attracting large audiences to her films. Monroe became a much-admired international star despite chronic insecurities regarding her acting abilities. She suffered from pre-performance anxiety that sometimes made her physically ill and was often the root cause of her legendary tardiness on film sets, which was so extreme that it often infuriated her co-stars and crew.
By the early s, however, Monroe's professional and personal life seemed to be in turmoil following unsuccessful relationships. Monroe's most notable films include:. Monroe's small part in John Huston's crime drama The Asphalt Jungle was her first movie to garner her a lot of attention. In , Monroe delivered a star-making turn in Niagara , as a young married woman out to kill her husband with help from her lover. The emerging sex symbol was paired with another bombshell, Jane Russell , for the hit musical comedy Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
Monroe continued to find success in a string of light comedic fares, such as How to Marry a Millionaire, with Betty Grable and Lauren Bacall.
The three women set out to find millionaires to marry in the film, but they find true love instead. Monroe again played the other woman in the film The Seven-Year Itch , about a faithful husband who's tempted to cheat when his family goes away for the summer.
Following her stint in New York at Strasberg's acting school, Monroe returned to the screen in the dramatic comedy Bus Stop She received mostly praise for her performance as a saloon singer kidnapped by a rancher who has fallen in love with her.
In , Monroe starred in The Prince and the Showgirl with Laurence Olivier , who also directed and produced the film. She often didn't show up for filming and her erratic behavior on set created a tense relationship with her co-stars, the crew and Olivier.
The film received mixed reviews and was a box office hit in Britain, but not as popular in the United States. The troubled production was the backdrop for the film My Week with Marilyn , starring Michelle Williams as Monroe. She played Sugar Kane Kowalczyk, a singer who hopes to marry a millionaire in this humorous film, in which Lemmon and Curtis pretend to be women. The men, on the run from the mob after witnessing the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, hide out with an all-girl orchestra featuring Monroe.
The Misfits was Monroe's last completed film. In the film, Monroe falls for Gable's cowboy but battles him over the fate of some wild mustangs. In , Monroe was dismissed from Something's Got to Give — co-starring Dean Martin — for missing so many days of filming. Both men soon become infatuated with her. After meeting ex-rodeo rider Perce Howland Montgomery Clift , the foursome starts up a business capturing wild horses. Critic review: "Gable has never done anything better on the screen, nor has Miss Monroe.
However, the jewel heist goes awry after a nightguard shoots and kills Ciavelli. Soon, the group turns on each other. Marilyn Monroe's part as Emmerich's sexy "niece" is small, but the film makes her an undeniable star regardless.
Critic review: "An early masterclass in the art of the caper movie, John Huston's thriller stands up wonderfully well, even if we've got used to far more convoluted scheming by movie robbers in the intervening period," wrote Andrew Pulver of the Guardian. When Lorelai and her costar Dorothy Shaw Jane Russell set sail on a cruise ship, Lorelai tries to set her friend up with a "suitable" — wealthy — match. Meanwhile, Esmond Sr.
Critic review: "My initial hunch was correct: the film is mostly about two women chasing men. But it's complex and hilarious, and not hilarious at the expense of the film's two female leads," wrote Samantha Mann for BUST.
After Channing makes the naive-seeming Eve her personal assistant, she soon finds that Harrington isn't so naive after all, and has orchestrated a plan to surpass Channing as the biggest star in town. Critic review: "So breathtakingly sharp and tense a story of the theater could hardly be so vital without some fragments of truth In its background," wrote Helen Bower of the Detroit Free Press. Summary: Nell Forbes Marilyn Monroe , a beautiful but depressed young woman, takes a babysitting job at a fancy hotel after being released from a psychiatric facility.
Nell begins a relationship with a hotel guest named Jed Towers Richard Widmark. However, after the child that Nell is supposed to be watching catches them, Nell is sent over the deep end. Jed must then attempt to prevent Nell from killing both herself and the child.
