Netflix’s Marilyn Monroe Movie Gets Rare NC-17 Rating for Sexual Content

She’s super cute but the fake boobs ruins her physique for me
When did she get implants? Last movies she was sorta naked was in Blade Runner and Bond even tho no nude, in that dress her tits didn't look bigger.

Edit: I don't like this fictional retelling of Marylin Monroe, saw the trailer and it turned me off. For now I'm not watching it.

She was in a Hulu movie with Ben Affleck where she played a whore wife. Every man she fucked, Affleck would kill. Tits were way too round and perky to be real.

They are probably close to making movies about Marilyn than Marilyn actually made herself. 🥸

Ben is big, but kinda slow, I'll take my chances :p

those tits are too small to be fake. I also dont care for her slightly brownish nipples. No way MM had anything but pink nipples.

P.S the sex scenes in this movie are awful. the threesome has her just laughing around and kissing dudes. the JFK BJ scene is awful. i need to stop watching porn.

Fortunately for you she has like 5 other films more in line with what you want.

I thought it was pretty good and had a great deal more merit outside visuals, score and performance (all of which were fantastic, even if de Armas' accent never lost its Cuban twang) than its predictable ravenous critics are giving it credit for. That it played so selectively and liberally with the details of Marilyn/Norma's life should have been a hint that it wasn't really about her per se but about what she represented and how it played into a certain psyche. It seemed to me a story about abandonment and desperation for connection, of hope sought in the wrong places and inevitably unfulfilled. Norma desperately sought a replacement for her absent father and validation of her need for love, yet found herself abused by all those she reached out to, and the 'love' from the public for Marilyn was just as predatory, empty and sexual. Every time she thought she found a connection, it was taken away from her, whether children through miscarriage and abortion, or the drink and drugs she uses to cope with her fame creating a separation between her and Arthur Miller, the only man who seemed to genuinely care for her. When she gets the note at the end, wrapped up in a memento echoing her childhood, she finally realises that what she had longed for her entire life was a mirage.

These themes land well, I think, not only in today's world of social media getting everyone addicted to a kind of false validation from the faceless crowd, but also the post-lockdown world where the effects of enforced isolation have fractured how people relate to each other. Some of the visual gimmicks were too trashy or obvious for their own good (talking to the fetus and image of the father; JFK's orgasm reflected in the action of the B-movie he's watching on TV, etc.) and the litany of horrors and abuses did get a bit exhausting and repetitive after a while. The time jumps and disinterest in getting to know Norma as a person beyond her tragedies also kept the film at a distance from its main character, which is thematically appropriate but made it hard to connect to the film on anything but an analytical level. I can see why some thought it exploitative, but for me exploitation is only interested in pure indulgence and sensation, whereas Blonde to me was deploying its horrors for a deeper point, even with a mixed success rate. It's a 6 or 7 out of 10 for me.

So what are people just giving out because it's sexual or what?

Ive heard people say this movie is anti abortion and anti women?. It's based in the 50s.. so yes?
 
only just finished watching it there. thought it was a bit boring but her performance was great and kept me hooked. a lot of people were critising her accent but i think she did a great job especially considering english isn't her first language.. i don't know how Marilyn really spoke but the way Ana spoke I could imagine that is how she really sounded. maybe it's just me but i never heard her natural accent coming through except one scene where she was shouting.

lol what? this the first movie you've seen her in that she's naked?

It is beautifully shot. And Anade Armas really looks the part.

But otherwise, it's kind of all over the place. I'll give them credit for trying something controversial from the current main stream.

Pretty bold move to have
JFK
in it as a rapist. I am sure that scene is gonna trigger some people.

They should’ve gone all in and had him and RFK doing her at the same time while high-fiving each other. If you’re going to trigger people like that and have a NC-17, why not just go for it?
 
Me (two hours into movie): “The NC-17 rating seems a bit harsh.”

*20 minutes later*

*close up single shot of Ana de Armas giving a blowjob for over a minute*

Me: “Well. There it is.”
Whoa, wait a minute, it actually shows her giving an unsimulated blowjob? Or is it simulated?

I love Ana de Armas so much, but even I'm a little uncomfortable with her doing something so graphic, I assume she shows her rooty tooty as well in the movie?

Yeah, who knew JFK was uncut?

No, they don't show any male member, though it's clear SOMETHING is in her hand and mouth. So for a BJ scene in a major film, it's probably the most graphic or nearly so. But its not like he bukkakes her or anything.

No it’s simulated. It’s mostly an up close shot of her face while doing it with her hand moving up and down, but someone is making her do it. Just goes on for an uncomfortable amount of time that it pretty much justifies the rating even if it’s not too graphic otherwise.

I see, pretty graphic but still simulated.

I was doing some research on Ana and she's been doing nudity since her very first movie when she was still a teenager, so... she's not exactly shy.

It’s not a major movie but Chloë Sevigny sucked off Vincent Gallow in The Brown Bunny.
The Brown Bunny is exactly what I was thinking of.

What a singularly bizarre moment in film history where a "real" movie thought it could get away with a "real" actress gobbling a real cock on camera and not be treated as a laughing stock.

Well, take away american puritanism (either the conservative 50's version or the 2020's #metoo variant) and lots of cultures are not prudes about their bodies.

A few videos of AdA "defending" this film crossed my IG. She is CLEARLY in control of how she is depicted, how are folks dissing her for it?
