did she really die of an overdose or killed, saw a clip from a podcast where he said she was bumped off for knowing to much after affairs with presidents, and was more likely to blab as she was getting older and drinking more.

darren ... i'm a huge fan and have done plenty of research . it can't be proved but the most likely scenario is she died of an overdose (she had a few near misses in the past ) and the delays to a search , moved body , etc, is a result of the kennedy/ fbi people ensuring there was no linking evidence to them when the body was found .
i mention the moved body as key .some doctors and theorists said the position she was found in proved it . this does not prove murder , they probably rolled her to ensure no suicide note was hidden underneath her . her affair with both the kennedys was well known in ' the circles ' . on its own , yes , could have been enough motive to bump her off but more significantly she was at the time clinging on to a revival of her career and was realistically facing rejection on a personal and professional level . having been through numerous foster parents , a mother detained due to mental health , a father who refused to acknowledge her , a string of dubious flings resulting in abortions and miscarriages and constant fear she was not fit to be a serious actress it is amazing she lived to her age at all . film wise . watch gentlemen prefer blondes as a great example of her as a comedy actress. also the misfits as a serious role whilst her whole life untangled . book wise ; there are so many so start with the least sensational titles .yes , you need photos . she held a camera shot like no other . it still makes me shake my head in despair when the likes of amanda holden are described as ' stars ' and ' beautiful ' .... |

There is a nice story about her in Capote's Music for Chameleons.

interesting winsor knot, it's a plausible theory she was bumped off but the previous overdoses would be convenient for anyone who wanted to drug her.

saddo , let me know it . i can't recall it . the picture of capote dancing with marilyn is a classic . she is clearly uncomfortable but he can't look at her as he is fixed on looking at those looking at him .

darren,
she would have been an incredibly unreliable witness. there was also , apparently , basic filmed bits of ' unseen ' meetings with her and others . it is , of course , the main focus of people but i feel slightly annoyed as a fan .... marilyn made loads of movies , had loads of great still photos ( the images of the time are amazingly modern ) , is still iconic to the highest imitated level ( hello , madonna ) and yet all many can remember is her death . lets look at her in life instead . |
