00:08This video contains spoilers for Netflix film Blonde, 2022.

00:14And key element in the new movie is Monroe's absence of a father figure.

00:18Blonde starring Marilyn Monroe eventually debuted on Netflix on September 28, 2022 after

00:24much anticipation the movie which blends fact and fiction to depict a very disturbed existence.

00:29What includes a number of deeply terrible experiences is not a standard biography, but

00:34rather a fictionalized adaptation of the same-named novel by Joyce Carol Oates you might be asking

00:39how much of this component of the movie is based on fact.

00:44Because it is a theme that the movie often returns to Norma Jean's relationship with

00:48her father or rather her lack of a relationship with her father what happened to the father

00:52of Marilyn Monroe in the movie Gladys, who is portrayed as a very disturbed woman who

00:57at one point even tries to drown her daughter in the bathtub raises Monroe at first.

01:01Although there is no proof that the bathtub event truly took place Monroe did grow up

01:06in a difficult family Gladys, lived in a number of orphanages and foster homes without a genuine

01:13parent after being given the paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis in the movies Monroe, expresses

01:18her absence of a father figure in a variety of ways including by calling a number of her

01:22partner's daddy and making repeated attempts to find her father she believes she is about

01:27to be reunited with her long-lost father in one scene where she is told there is a surprise

01:32waiting for her in her hotel room and at the end of the movie she thinks she has finally

01:36gotten a letter from him only to be disappointed once more in reality it is certainly true

01:42that Monroe's father was absent from her life and even if the specifics of some of the aforementioned

01:47incidents in the film don't match up to reality it also appears that she did indeed spend

01:52a long time trying to find him even the actual identity of her father has not always been

01:56certain officially her dad was listed as Martin Edward Mortensen the man to whom Gladys was

02:01previously married but it seems that he was not actually her real father and had in fact

02:07separated from Gladys long before Norma Jean was born for a long long time it has been

02:12widely believed that a real father was Charles Stanley Gifford a man who had worked alongside

02:16Gladys at Consolidated Film Industries where he was a shift foreman and indeed in 2022 the

02:23documentary Maryland her final secret involved DNA research that claimed to prove that this

02:28was the case with director Francois Poems telling Variety that the evidence was irrefutable

02:34James Doherty Monroe's first husband claimed that she had made an initial attempt to locate

02:38Gifford soon after their marriage but had been unsuccessful Doherty states in the film

02:43Maryland Monroe the mortal goddess that Charles Stanley Gifford was the mother's father before

02:48going on to become a producer and director he further stated she picked up the phone

02:52looked up his number and dialed his number he refused to acknowledge her saying no I

02:56don't know who you are see my attorney what's clear after watching Blonde which the filmmaker

03:02behind the assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford has spent a decade

03:07trying to make is that he doesn't really see any humanity and either based on the Pulitzer

03:11Prize winning novel by Joyce Carol Oates Blonde weaves together extravagant cinematic

03:16artifice with a grueling cruel portrayal of one of our most iconic movie stars known the

03:20world over for her platinum blonde hair siren eyes and breathy line delivery Maryland Monroe

03:25is one of pop culture's most enduring icons so much so that after her death her likeness

03:31has been merchandised capitalized imitated and repackaged so many times over it's easy

03:36to forget Maryland Monroe was ever a real person born Norma Jean Baker her rise from

03:41an impoverished childhood marked by abandonment to box office bombshell is the stuff that

03:46Hollywood dreams market themselves upon and her personal life has been the subject of

03:51much gossip and study both in her lifetime and after her death Blonde is unrelenting

03:57in its cruelty towards its subject fusing both Merrill and the real person and Merrill

04:01in the idea through stunningly accurate recreations of her looks pinup covers and iconic

04:06scenes from her films and then reveling in debasing both for our viewing pleasure in

04:11the book the author follows the broad strokes of Maryland's rags to riches life story from

04:15an internal point of view her agonizing love for her mentally unstable mother and stints

04:20and orphanages her trio of troubled marriages first to James Doherty then to baseball star

04:26Joe DiMaggio and lastly to playwright Arthur Miller her rise to box office bombshell and

04:31her untimely demise aged 36 of a barbiturate overdose Maryland's was a life of such extreme

04:37highs and lows embellishment would seem superfluous but Blonde sprinkles in a few fictional abuses

04:43to really emphasize the Hollywood contradiction of a superb talent with a troubled life in

04:48the movies they cut you up into pieces Maryland muses at one point which is ironic considering

04:54Blonde starts with a shot of her but surrounded by the leering men and photographers who were

04:59at the filming of the famous subway scene in the seven-year itch the real Maryland by

05:03many accounts was undeniably gifted and determined to be a good actress to better her craft we

05:08see glimpses of that in Blonde through her time at the actors studio in New York and

05:13her initial honestly intellectual connection with Miller played by Adrian Brody over their

05:17love of the work of Russian playwright Anton Chekhov Cuban Spanish actor Anna do Armas

05:23immerses herself in this role and her efforts to give this portrayal some humanity are admirable

05:28but Blonde doesn't lend her the room to do much other than weep none of the winking

05:32charm she demonstrated and knives out is here only briefly do we see her play Maryland as

05:37the movie star we know her to be for most of Blonde we're told that she's a movie star
