Review - My Week With Marilyn

My Week with Marilyn (2011) Posterimage taken from imdb.com

This film were starred by Michelle Williams, you must know her from Dawson's Creek, it was a boom in my generation XD. The male actor is Eddie Redmayne, one of the actor in the mini series of Pillars Of the Earth, her innocent face kind of take my heart.
Anyway this movie talked about the process of making one of Marilyn Monroe's famous movie, The Prince and The Showgirl. Marilyn Monroe is a difficult movie star, who had bad mood and really have problems with self esteem. People who worked with her started complaining about her attitude since the movie become delayed because of her attitude and it got worse when she found out about her husband's writing. You will see in the movie that Marilyn is a woman with lots of doubt and attitude that irritating. I really don't know if she is really like that or did Michelle Williams acted so bad, the personality of Marilyn Monroe annoys me very much. Anyway, Eddie Redmayne acted as Colin Clark, the third assistant of the director who catch Marilyn's eyes and become one of her slaves. I like how Eddie Redmayne's act, he play the role very well and the naive of younghood played subtly along the movie. It's michelle williams that annoys me, somehow everything looks very artificial, how she talks, how she moves, I really wish another actress should cast for her role.
But I really suggest you should watch the movie, perhaps you would have different opinion from mine.
I give this movie 2,5 / 5 stars.
