For me, My Week with Marilyn is not about how a 24-year-old British boy, Colin Clark, spends a week with Marilyn Monroe, the goddess of sexiness that all men admired at the time , It is better to say that it is a record of the true inner and emotional entanglement of a generation of sexy movie star Marilyn Monroe.
First of all, I really like Marilyn Monroe, the first time I saw her movie, I was fascinated by her charming attitude, innocent personality, wit and humorous demeanor, her sexy stunner appearance was second, and she The brilliance of the role played is a touch of brilliance in the dark, and it will illuminate your heart when you are inadvertently aware of it.
A woman like Monroe who looks beautiful and attractive, but seems to be a bit stupid, definitely gives men an impression that it is extremely easy to get started, and it is easy for her to be fooled. Maybe this is the reason why millions of men are obsessed with the sexy goddess on the screen. one. In fact, Monroe in life is the same as any beautiful woman. She has a strong sense of insecurity in her heart. It comes from her unfortunate childhood, her rough life experience, her attachment to her feelings, and her dreams for men. It also comes from beauty like Hollywood. Groups of female stars compete with each other for the dream factory of youth. Such a woman is an immature child, a combination of a devil and an angel. She is like a mature peach. Under her extremely bright and charming appearance, she is indeed an extremely insecure child, always seeking the affirmation of her by men and the recognition of her value by men. Such a woman is a man's plaything by nature, especially those men who are scheming and will definitely take advantage of her, such as her director, the famous British movie star Lawrence Oliver; her husband, the American playwright Arthur Miller; she later The secret lover, US President Kennedy. These men just want to use Monroe's fame, beauty and simple to achieve their own goals, either to let Monroe's youthful beauty illuminate their old appearance and revive their youthful courage; or by marrying a star with the most commercial value Wife and wife are encouraging their writing career, which has been a long time, or they want to physically possess a Hollywood sexy goddess to satisfy the desires of powerful men. And poor Monroe, a talented and intelligent woman who could not escape the disaster of the world, but could not leave these men who used her in her life, and finally reached her collapse and withering.
As it is often said, girls need to be rich and boys need to be poor. Indeed, for a girl like Monroe who grew up in other people's families and raised up in other people's families, she may have limited ability to be an ordinary person, let alone a big Hollywood star. , inner anxiety, hurried struggles, real feelings, etc. Psychological weaknesses have become the ultimate executioners who will eventually eat away at her life, not drugs, not alcohol, but the remaining self-confidence and sense of security in her heart, and It is the use and harm of mature men to her.
This movie is just about a week in Monroe, in which she showed us her most ordinary side, and her most neurotic and insecure side. This is a real Monroe, the beautiful woman who is always willing to be a mature man, the simple woman who always seeks emotional comfort from mature men, but the one who can really bring her some happiness is really simple. For a boy who has not become a man, only in front of Colin Clark, a boy who has not yet been deeply involved in the world, can she achieve her true self and let go of her coquettishness in front of mature men. Monroe needs Colin Clark what a kitten needs another cat, a playmate, a haven for a moment of peace in her scarred heart, and that's it. Because she knows that Hollywood and the star circle are all battlefields for mature men, and only mature men can make her the queen of Hollywood. If she wants to continue to be successful and to become famous, she has to not give up the fame and fortune she has gained, and completely give up the only remaining simplicity in her heart. In a group of young boys like Colin Clark, all she can get is pure admiration and look up, and she really needs to look up to others to be able to become a generation of sexy goddess.
After a week with Monroe, simple boys such as Colin Clark finally began to mature, began to change themselves, become mature men in the future, and become the life of a woman who has a rough life and a pure heart like Monroe in the future. If it wasn't for a week with Monroe, he wouldn't have written a biography that ended up being made into a film and became a so-called successful playwright. Perhaps, this is the gift that Monroe brings to men, she never realizes her true worth, even in the moment of overdose (or drug murder) death, her last phone calls are to her man in life.
At this point, Michelle Williams, who plays Monroe, can only be similar in appearance, not in spirit, because Michelle's wealthy family and smooth life cannot make her truly understand the heart of Monroe, who was born in poverty. of confusion. Watching Michelle play Monroe's coquettish coquettishly with red lips and white teeth, my heart is saddened by Monroe, who has truly been crushed by the vicissitudes of life and is far away in the kingdom of heaven.
