*Marilyn (1963) Documentary Narrator Rock and 50 similar items

Vintage original 8x10 in. US single-weight glossy photograph from the classic 1960's Hollywood-themed documentary, MARILYN, released in 1963 by 20th Century-Fox and directed by Henry Koster. This feature-length documentary on the career of Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe was narrated by Rock Hudson. The image depicts an interior shot inside of a sound stage on the 20th Century-Fox lot as Rock Hudson walks onto a set carrying his jacket over his arm as he walks towards a 35mm motion picture camera mounted atop a tripod as a man touching a sound boom walks behind him. Printed on single-weight stock with a glossy finish, this vintage original photograph is in very fine condition with a 0.25 in. diagonal crease on the top right corner. There are no pinholes, tears, stains, or other flaws. For almost 3 decades, this documentary contained all the clips from Somethjng's Get To Give that the public saw. It was said the film was "unwatchable," Marilyn's scenes were "terrible," and the color had faded from the negatives. The only one of these true was the last - the color had degenerated over time. One reason the film was kept from public view,was so it would go along with 20th Century-Fox's long-held (fabricated) story of Marilyn being the (sole) cause of the film being shut down. In actual fact, Marilyn had been rehired by Fox - several days before her passing - at terms which were much fairer to an actor of her magnitude, and would also be the concluding film in Marilyn's Fox contract.
