Story

 

This is a four-hour CBS mini-series where Poppy Montgomery takes the starring role in this uneven vehicle based on the book by Joyce Carol Oates. The story starts with Norma Jean's childhood years, introducing us to her mother (Gladys Baker), grandmother (Della Monroe), and creepy-but-well-meaning foster mom, Elsie (Kirstie Alley). The middle of the film gives us a look at Marilyn's attempt at being a normal housewife, her move into modeling, nude modeling, and eventually her turn to acting. Painting her as a poor, used-and-abused, naïve country girl, the final leg of the film gives us a rapid-fire overview of her love life—including the erotic threesome of herself, Cass, and Eddy G. to lovers who are identified only as The Playwright and The Baseball Player. The mini-series ends just short of Marilyn's famous Kennedy birthday serenade three months before her tragic death.
