Marilyn Monroe (Little People, BIG DREAMS)

Description

Little Norma Jeane grew up between foster homes, an orphanage, and a family friend’s house – where she was forbidden from watching movies. Through her difficult childhood and teen years, she dreamed of becoming an actress. One day a photographer spottedher and gave her a modelling contract, and from this day she was ‘Marilyn Monroe’.

She was much-admired but suffered from pre-performance anxiety, which was a challenge for her in her career. Her films grossed over $200 million but she was known to have said: ‘I don't want to make money. I just want to be wonderful.’

She dazzled a generation with her inspired performances and unique style and glamour, and her legacy will live forever as one of the most iconic film actors of all time.
