Is there another star in the history of movies (with the possible exception of Charlie Chaplin's Little Tramp) who was as recognizable, as analyzed, or as much of an icon as Marilyn Monroe? The answer, simply, is no-- and the proof would seem to be in this DVD collection of snippets from the edges of her career. "A Collector's Dream" is how they bill the section of the video program devoted to trailers from Monroe's films--including films such as "Love Nest" and "Let's Make It Legal," in which she barely appears--and it's hard to imagine anyone but a Marilyn completist being satisfied by this disc. The trailers are notable mostly for how much of the movie they show. But they account for the bulk of the video content on this disc, along with approximately half an hour of newsreel footage of Monroe, which is the real find here. Aside from the footage itself from those pre-infotainment days, the newsreels are an intriguing peek into the way news was disseminated during the decade when TV was coming of age. The package also includes a lengthy audio section, containing all of the songs Monroe sang in films (most of which are available elsewhere on CD). --Marshall Fine

Customer Reviews of The Complete Marilyn Monroe

very enjoyable but....
I found this DVD very enjoyable but not as thorough as I had expected. I thought the newsreels were very good but I wish they had included more rare footage, like screen tests, wardrobe tests, commercials and other footage that turn up on numerous documentaries. The collection of movie trailers were great but again some were missing (There's No Buisness Like Show Buisness), and some were of really bad quality (Bus Stop). The audio part of her studio recordings were excellent and thorough, with the best fidelity I've heard so far on CD, unfortunatly I was unable to play it on my CD player as I had hoped. All and all, worthwhile but not as "complete" as they say.

Worth the price
I purchased this DVD over a year ago and still see it frequently. First of all, I had never seen some of the newsreels before and it's interesting to see the 1952-1962 newsreels on Marilyn because the commentators look at her in a totally different way than we do. Today we see MM as a tragic goddess, but back then the reporters saw her as a "hot tomato." Also, the trailers are fascinating and you can select to run them all together--which is nice. I also loved the audio tracks because I always enjoy hearing MM's sensual voice. If you're a huge MM fan (as I am), you won't regret adding this to your collection.

OVERALL....DISSAPOINTING
I would not have purchased this DVD had i know what was on it. The best part are the Newsreels but here is a lot of familiar footage also. There are only a few, often seen pictures and movie posters,a large selection of Marilyn's songs from her movies (mostly) and a lot of movie trailers. Standard stuff.
