A riveting feature documentary about Marilyn Monroe's first husband and boyfriend. He was her svengali, her lover and her friend. She loved him more than anyone on earth, and despite Hollywood ordering her to divorce him, she still wanted to live with him, bear his children, and secretly keep him in her life. This film documents her secret life with him, and reveals startling secrets about Marilyn's true personae, her unknown illness, her frailties, fears and fantasies. Written by

I have seen this wonderful movie. Norma Jean will now shine in the eyes of all Marilyn fans world wide. This film humanizes the woman who has become immortal! She was after all only one woman. Jim has set the record straight....all because of his undying love. What a true romance! We all love Marilyn...now we can love Norma Jean as well! Anyone who minimizes the essence of this story has never truly been in love! Not unlike a childless person....claiming to know anything re:raising children!
All this and done with local ingenuity. It is refreshing to find that not all movies have to come from Hollywood. There is such talent locally and it shines through in Marilyn's Man.
