Fascinating Information About Legendary Marilyn Monroe's Life


Fact – 16


Marilyn started her own production company, therefore becoming the first female working in the movie business. Still, her company just released one film.
Establishing Marilyn Monroe Productions (MMP), Marilyn Monroe created history in 1955 and became a trailblazer for women in the male-dominated Hollywood business. This audacious action revealed not only her economic sense but also her need for professional creative autonomy. The lone play the firm produced, "The Prince and the Showgirl" (1957), co-starring Sir Laurence Olivier, deviated greatly from her usual parts. MMP's very existence questioned the studio system's iron control on performers' careers, even if the movie had meager monetary success. For her time, Monroe's foray into production was groundbreaking, opening doors for next generations of actresses to seize their artistic destinies. MMP's development also produced a novel contract renegotiation with 20th Century Fox that guaranteed her increased salary and script approval rights. This entrepreneurial energy highlighted Monroe's sometimes disregarded business sense and will to be more than just a screen icon.
