Actually a fan of this one. With Elvis and this I feel this is the year where a lot of filmmakers dared to break away from the strict confines of the biopic picture. I guess LarraĆ*n has been doing it too with his Jackie but I found that one such a snooze to be honest. Instead, Blonde is definitively cinematic, ambitious and unique. I understand where the charges of cruelty are coming from but Marilyn is a public icon. It's inevitable to see someone with such a large cultural footprint portrayed in a variety of alternative ways and I believe nothing in the film is outside the realm of artistic rights.
