My Week With Marilyn
Directed by Simon Curtis, this lush biopic tells the story of Colin Clark (Eddie Redmayne), A young man working at a London film studio and the week he spends on the set where they are filming The Princess and the Showgirl, starring Lawrence Olivier and Marilyn Monroe. According to the film, based on the real Clark’s memoirs, the young man not only became a confidant of the troubled young actress, but her lover and friend, too. Whether you believe it really happened or not isn’t relevant to the cinematic thrill of watching the movie, thanks to the stunning performance of Michelle Williams. Many actresses have tried to imitate Marilyn in the past, but none have managed to go beyond imitation to capture the essence of the woman the way Williams does.
