i agree that they did pack a lot into it. I also admit
that i watched the film without too much knowledge
about marilyn monroe other than a few of her films and
stuff I've read in TIME magazine. I was really
fascinated with her sessions with a therapist and her
dreams and her imaginary back-from-the-dead
friend/mom? Another HBO film that blew me away was
"RKO 281", I thought it really tried to show what
orson welles went through to make "citizen kane" and
how he almost became just like the man he hated;
william randolph hearst.
