Norma Jean & Marilyn Page #4

Synopsis: In this film, Ashley Judd and Mira Sorvino portray two sides of the woman America loved, but who struggled to love herself: Marilyn Monroe. To the world, Marilyn was a vivacious superstar, the epitome of sexuality, sensuality and frolicsome amusement. Every man wanted her - every woman wanted to be her. But behind the enticing smile, beneath the tight-fitting dresses, there was a dark secret - one Marilyn could not bury in the past... the child inside named Norma Jean. Everything Norma Jean dreams of, Marilyn achieves. Every man she struggles to resist, Marilyn succumbs to. And while Marilyn climbs the ladder to success, Norma Jean was beneath it, almost willing her to fall.

some women really look better blonde.

There. Now, you just sit there

and relax for a few minutes, okay?.

And I'll...

Would you like something to drink maybe

Sure.

I've got some Coke,

or some Tasty Oragne.

You should work at a hospital.

Doc's a funny name for a cowboy.

Come on, little lady, let's ride!

Now, this is the way

the gentleman rides:

gallop, gallop, gallop, gallop!

And this is the way the lady rides:

trot, trot, trot, trot,

trot, trot, trot!

And this is the way the farmer rides:

gallop-deloy, gallop-deloy.

Oh! Come on, honey,

give your old Doc a kiiisssss!

My God, you're pretty.

No.

Aw, Gracie, honey, we were just playin'

Norma Jean, this is Mrs. Dewey.

She's very nice,

I think you're really gonna like her.

But, I'm not an orphan.

Hello, dear.

I...I think it's for the best.

Just for a little while.

Just till Doc

and me can work things out.

Come inside, Norma Jean...

I don't belong here!

Meet the other girls!

Let go of me!

Don't leave me! No! Grace!

Aunt Grace! Aunt... Ow!

Hello?.

May I speak to Stanley Gifford, please?.

Who's calling?.

This is Miss Norma Jean Baker,

his daughter.

Um...Gladys Baker's girl.

Uh...just a moment.

He doesn't want to speak to you.

He says if you have any questions

you should call his lawyer

in Los Angeles.

I'll give you the number.

Do you have a pencil?.

Bless you! Blesssss you!

I'm Mary Louise Gifford, you...

Your father's wife, your stepmother.

I've travelled all the way

from Hemet to beg you --

your father's in the hospital.

He's dying.

His last wish was to see his daughter

just one time before he meets his maker

Tell him to call my lawyer.

Do you have a pencil?.

Absolutely perfect!

You look like a whole new woman!

Hey, Eddie! Eddie,

take it easy over there!

Somebody help him!

The two of you dancing together,

you looked like some kind of

burlesque skit!

I'm not seeing him because of

the way he looks, Eddie.

Yeah, no kidding!

So, who the hell is he?.

Johnny Hyde.

He's a very influential agent.

In fact, he's Vice President of

the William Morris Agency.

Yeah, I've heard of him.

Johnny's the one

who discovered Lana Turner.

He also repressents Bob Hope

and Rita Hayworth

Not to mention my Uncle Ted.

That's right, I didn't know

if you knew that.

Ted's the one who introduced us.

You have been seeing Uncle Ted!?.

Well, sure. When he's in town.

Why are you getting so upset?.

Why?. Why?.

Because he's married, that's why!

To my aunt! And I'm gonna kill him!

Listen, Eddie,

I don't give a f*** about your uncle.

But if he wants to help me out

and all he wants in exchange is for me

to spend some time with him,

and to be nice to him.
