A review by brittniphillips
My Week with Marilyn by Colin Clark

1.0

This book has very little to do with Marilyn. The author is the 3rd Asst Director of a film Marilyn is featured in and he has very little interaction with her. His "week" with her is more like a day and one random evening which he described in exact detail in about 100 pages. There is no excitement to this 'week' he talks about. It kind of just happened. The other 206 pages are a day by day telling of what goes on in a movie production in the 50s. All is taken from the author's personal diary from when he worked on the film.

Great if you want to know how a film in the 50s is made. Horrible if you are looking for a Marilyn Monroe story.
