Based on Joyce Carol Oates’ 2000 novel of the same name, netflix's long-awaited Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde starring Ana de Armas is set to land this autumn.
“the definitive study of American celebrity”, the fictionalised telling of Monroe’s life sees Ana de Armas step into the stilettoes of the iconic actor and pin-up model.is released on Netflix this autumn, Joyce Carol Oates has given the film a glowing endorsement. Speaking at the 21st Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival in Switzerland, the prize-winning novelist praised the way the film honours the female gaze.
Back in February, director Andrew Dominik predicted that the film would get an NC-17 rating – the highest American film rating denoting ‘No One 17 And Under Admitted’ – for its themes.. “If the audience doesn’t like it, that’s the fucking audience’s problem. It’s not running for public office. It’s an NC-17 movie about Marilyn Monroe, it’s kind of what you want, right? I want to go and see the NC-17 version of the Marilyn Monroe story.
“It’s basically the story of every human being, but it’s using a certain sense of association that we have with something very familiar, just through media exposure.”
