Marilyn Monroe was Norma Jeane’s 1940s pin-up. Calendars and magazines feature her. Mr. Z rapes her. (1951) auditions her for Nell. After crying, the casting director casts her. She begins a polyamorous relationship with Charles “Cass” Chaplin Jr. and Edward G. “Eddy” Robinson Jr. as her acting career expands. 1953 saw Niagara’s Norma Jeane. Her agent advised her to minimise her time with Cass and Eddy after seeing them. She was outraged because Marilyn Monroe was a role.
Cass’s child is Norma Jeane’s joy. Because she believes the child will have mental health difficulties like Gladys, she aborts. Agrees Cass. She changes her mind on meeting day, too late. Also, she leaves Cass and Eddy after the abortion. She meets former baseball player Joe DiMaggio, who understands her ambition to leave Hollywood and become a real actress in New York. While filming Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, her father writes her. At the film’s premiere, Norma Jeane seems unfamiliar. She denies. She returns to her hotel room because someone is waiting. Joe was mistaken for Jeane’s father. She rejected his marriage proposal.
Cass and Eddy give Joe some nude publicity photos of Norma Jeane. This makes Joe so angry that he hits her and tells her she can’t do The Seven Year Itch because it’s against her morals. But she still does the famous publicity stunt with the white dress and films the movie.
Joe yells and hits her when she gets home intoxicated. Her divorce follows.
Norma Jeane auditions for Arthur Miller’s 1955 Broadway drama Magda. She impresses everyone but Arthur during a run-through.
When she gives him a good character analysis, he starts to like her more. Norma Jeane marries Arthur and moves to Maine with him, where she lives a happy life and gets pregnant. But one day, as she walks along the beach with a plate of food, she trips and drops it. She was upset and went back to acting soon after.
While making Some Like It Hot, Norma Jeane gets even more out of control and crazy. She feels overwhelmed by the constant attention from the press, thinks she’s becoming a joke, loses her temper often on set, especially with director Billy Wilder, and pulls away from Arthur. She starts taking pills to help her deal with her stress.
By 1962, she was abusing drugs and alcohol. The president meets drunk Norma Jeane at a motel. The president beats, rapes, and abducts her after she vomits in his bed. She wonders if this is “Marilyn Monroe.” Before returning to LA, she dreams of another abortion. Eddy calls to tell her Cass died and left her something. Eddy mails it to her after convincing her to see it.
