The Mystery of Marilyn Monroe: The Unheard Tapes

Was dissappointed after new audio and footage still singing same old suicide song. Why can't anybody ever hold kennedys accountable for anything? She did not kill herself. The pills were not in her stomach, the blood pooling was on her back. Please someone tell the truth.

WHY are they putting their name on this? It's pointless. Plus, STOP with the "reenactment" visuals. We just couldn't LISTEN to the tapes, with historical footage? They had to insert "actors" mouthing the words of celebrities?

I turned it off after twenty minutes. THIS is why you're failing, Netflix. We deserve more than garbage...

Marilyn Monroe was beautiful, talented, smart and funny. She also had a lot of problems. She was a good actress and her best movie was Some Like It Hot. Who knows what would have happened to her if she hadn't gotten involved with the Kennedys. She had a history of drug and alcohol use too. This is a really good documentary. One worth watching.

Narratively this is absolutely all over the place. No structure, no new information, nothing revelatory at all. It careers around regurgitating stuff we already knew, hints at a few things but is such a mess it never even bothers to provide any real interesting information. Crap, even for Netflix.

An intriguing documentary which uses the real life voice recordings of Marilyn Monroe and the many people who knew her both before and after she became a mega star. Though we ultimately know how this tragic story ends, Marilyn is still ravishing and lovely enough to hold our attention. When one sees her remastered film clips in this documentary, it's easy to understand why the world fell in love with her and why she continues to captivate so many to this day.
