BLONDE an NC-17 Netflix Marilyn Monroe begs for Ugly Guy

Описание: The upcoming Netflix film about the life of Marilyn Monroe had been rumored to be a unique film in the history of the streaming service. And now the MPAA has confirmed that Blonde, starring Ana de Armas in the lead role, will in fact be the first NC-17 rated original Netflix production. However, the reason for the rating is perhaps a little interesting, as the only given reason is “some sexual content.”

The director of the film, Andrew Dominik, had previously indicated that he expected Blonde to be rated NC-17, so the fact that the rating has come through is not all that surprising. However, considering how specific the MPAA can get with some film descriptions, we might have expected more detail around the rating than simply “sexual situations.” The same description is often given to R-rated movies, so this description doesn’t really tell why Blonde is worthy of the NC-17 rating.

Over the years, Marilyn Monroe's love life has become as shrouded in mystery and legend as the circumstances of her death in 1962.

As her good friend and photographer Sam Shaw, who himself was rumored to be her lover, once said, "If Marilyn slept with every guy that claims he was with her, she would have never had time to make any movies."

Ana de Armas is Marilyn Monroe in Blonde, only on Netflix 9/23. From director Andrew Dominik, and based on the bestselling novel by Joyce Carol Oates, Blonde boldly reimagines the complicated life of icon Marilyn Monroe. Blurring the lines of fact and fiction, the film artfully explores the tension between her public and private life. Tim McKlasky stars as the man she ruins and corrupts. This will get Oscar Buzz.

Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe's tragic death spawned conspiracies and rumors for decades, often overshadowing her talent and shrewdness. By piecing together her final weeks, days, and hours through previously unheard recordings of those who knew her best, the film illuminates more of her glamorous, complicated life, and offers a new perspective on that fateful night.
