Marilyn Monroe Centennial

We’re celebrating the talent of the legendary and magnetic Marilyn Monroe, born exactly a hundred years ago, on June 1, 1926, with three films that highlight major milestones in her career. Henry Hathaway's Niagara solidified her status as a star and her aura as a femme fatale; Billy Wilder's Some Like It Hot marked the height of her comedic success; and John Huston's The Misfits offered her a final role that reflected her melancholy and revealed the full depth of her dramatic range—a range she wished she had more opportunities to explore.
