Marilyn, dernières séances

2009 - 90 min - DV Cam - France

For thirty months, from January 1960 to August 4, 1962, they formed an anomalous couple: the Hollywood sex goddess Marilyn Monroe and the strict Freudian psychoanalyst, Ralph Greenson. She had asked him to help her act, help her get up in the morning, help her not to die. He had made it his mission to surround her with love, as if she were a child in distress. He wanted to protect her but because he was the last person to see her alive, he has been accused of involvement in her death.
A side of Marilyn Monroe that few are acquainted with: her relationship with the last person to see her alive and the first person to see her dead, the celebrated Hollywood psychoanalyst Ralph Greenson. This richly documented story of a mutual fascination is set among the giants of film (George Cukor, John Houston) and literature (Truman Capote, Arthur Miller).
