SUMMARY:
– Her biggest wish at that time was a quiet life in the country, which is how she ended up in Roxbury.
– The family of a boy (let’s call him Johnny) lived in the community. Like everyone else, they didn’t have enough money, and the boy had to work after school. He was a part-time sales assistant in a small shop. Marilyn Monroe was their loyal customer.
– Marilyn came to the shop and noticed that Johnny was absent. The sad owner told her that Johnny’s mother had died suddenly the day before.
– Surprisingly, the family found out the next day that the funeral service had been completely paid for. On top of that, the funeral parlor was full of flowers.
– It turned out that at approximately the same time, the actress made a substantial donation to the local church school. It was mostly poor children from the families of immigrants who attended the school.
– The public image of Marilyn differed dramatically from her true personality. And even those bits and pieces we know about her nowadays don’t completely reveal what kind of a person she was. The actress was much kinder and softer than her contemporaries used to think.
– On June 29, 1956, when the couple signed their marriage license, the area turned into a playground for paparazzi. One of the cars following the newlyweds was speeding along the curvy country roads a little bit too quickly, and the driver couldn’t control the car. As a result, the French reporter who was inside died.
– Her husband was a self-sufficient and solitary man. He spent mornings working in his study and afternoons repairing the house. As for the actress, she didn’t have much to occupy herself with.
– Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller had been married for less than 5 years. The playwright married photographer Inge Morath just one month after the divorce.
– Her life came to an end 19 months later on August 5, 1962, in her new home in Los Angeles. Her death remains as mysterious as the life of this outstanding woman.
