Too young to remember her live, but MM, Sophia Loren and Barbara Eden were the definition of 'hot'

I have a set of MM playing cards(NSFW, laying on a red bed).

I recall reading yrs. ago that she was under the influence of Borderline Personality Disorder.
A nasty mental challenge for anyone.

She was a little before my time but I’ve spent time in that house. My friends owned it in the mid-‘80s to early ‘90s. It’s on one of the Helenas, (streets in Brentwood), maybe 12th Helena(?).

She was on the extreme of the crazy/hot scale and unfortunately it was only a matter of time.

I always thought she was so sad, no joy in her life. Lovely, mentally unstable, blonde version of Vivian Leigh or Gene Tierney, never had a chance.

I remember a movie called Niagara. I was a teenager the first time I saw it. As I remember the movie has the typical Hollywood pretty actresses in it and they are nice looking. And then Marylin walks in, wow, the sexy level was off the chart. Just a different level that the other ladies in the movie.

It has been many decades since I saw it, so maybe my memory has become foggy with time. I just remember being stunned how much sexier and prettier she was than the other women in movies. At least to my teenage eyes of the time. I don't remember the plot or anything else about that movie, just her.

Fun memories...for us it was "river of no return"...Marilyn and Robert Mitchum. Rented it when our daughter was 8th grade or so. Afterwards, our daughter: "wow mom, she really had IT, didn't she?"

Yep kid, she did...

The "It" defined.

I am not a fan of the blond bombshell genre, but some pictures of her can't be explained.

Yea all the young ladies in the movies are pretty. Especially the ones the leading man is involved with. Then there was a different level for MM.
