Michelle Williams spends time as Marilyn Monroe

  • 13 years ago
Actress Michelle Williams brings Marilyn Monroe to life in the new film "My Week with Marilyn".
The Hollywood actress hit the red carpet with co-star Eddie Redmayne at the movie's New York Film Festival screening.
Based on a true story, the movie is adapted from author Colin Clark's diaries, "The Prince, The Showgirl and Me" and "My Week with Marilyn".
In 1956, Clark, played by English actor Eddie Redmayne, was a 23-year-old from Oxford, England working his way up in the movie industry.
After snagging a job on Marilyn's film, "The Prince and the Showgirl," Clark spent one week with Marilyn - introducing her to the pleasures of British life while allowing her to get away from the pressures of Hollywood.
The film also stars English actor Dominic Cooper, Harry Potter star Emma Watson and Oscar winner Dame Judi Dench.
"My Week with Marilyn" will be released in the U.S. on November 4th, and on November 18th in the UK.
