Loosely based on the life of Marilyn Monroe, this engaging drama from screenwriter Paddy Chayefsky follows a young aspiring actress whose desire for fame leads to the abandoning of her child and a short-lived marriage to a washed-up boxer. She's able to use her sex appeal as a means to make it to the top, but soon finds it a hollow victory. Kim Stanley, Lloyd Bridges, Steven Hill, and Patty Duke star. 105 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English LPCM mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); theatrical trailer. Region Free
