Storyline
Sir Laurence Olivier is making a movie in London. Young Colin Clark, an eager film student, wants to be involved and he navigates himself a job on the set. When film star Marilyn Monroe arrives for the start of shooting, all of London is excited to see the blonde bombshell, while Olivier is struggling to meet her many demands and acting ineptness, and Colin is intrigued by her. Colin's intrigue is met when Marilyn invites him into her inner world where she struggles with her fame, her beauty and her desire to be a great actress. Written by napierslogs

Trivia
Catherine Zeta-Jones was approached to play Vivien Leigh, but declined in favor to spend time with ailing husband Michael Douglas. After she dropped out of the project, Rachel Weisz was considered to replace her, however, she was filming three projects back to back at the time (The Untitled Terrence Malick Project, the Untitled Lynn Shelton Project and The Deep Blue Sea), so Julia Ormond was cast instead.

Anachronisms: The London Routemaster bus featured prominently in a couple of the street scenes is out of period. The film is set in late 1956, whereas the first bus routes changed over to Routemasters were in late 1959. The substantial number of cars also used as props do, however, appear to be in period.
