Now playing on the Criterion Channel! An era-defining star whose pop-culture mythos has grown so immense it often eclipses the work she did as an actor, Marilyn Monroe deserves to be remembered as more than just an emblem of 1950s sexuality or tragic beauty. She was, first and foremost, an artist, a dedicated perfectionist who combined natural screen magnetism with a serious commitment to her craft that she honed through her work with Method acting pioneers Lee and Paula Strasberg. Though classic turns in GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES and THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH immortalized her brilliant comic timing, Monroe was equally effective in dramatic showcases like BUS STOP and THE MISFITS, in which she tapped into the deep well of vulnerability that lay beneath her glamorous image.
