    An OK Film, that skirts around the final issue

    Nothing wonderful here. It's clear that Norma Jean was brighter than she was obliged to show to the world. However too little attention was given to the links with the Kennedy brothers and their involvement with her final days.

    Not a great film, but told the story well enough
