The time has finally come for all of us to leave Marilyn Monroe alone. The Hollywood legend died 60 years ago and has been resurrected so much in the last year that, well, it’s just enough already, writes kirkpate
about Monroe, “She could, arguably, be the most-photographed person of the 20th century.”
And, as in life, so in death Monroe continues to be wildly exploited by both those around her and the industries that profit off her public image. She has never been allowed to be a fully realized person, at least in the public eye. By her own admission, the woman she presented onscreen to the American public was just the façade of a glamorous sex bomb Hollywood decided to market her as, not the painfully shy Norma Jeane Baker who grew up in a string of foster homes.
