The United States of America, having victoriously completed World War II, was entering a new era of prosperity. Many young Hollywood actors and actresses aspired to become her heroes. Among them was the young actress Marilyn Monroe (1926-1962), who amazed men’s hearts. Possessing magnificent appearance and a charming voice, she managed to become famous, becoming a star and sex symbol in Hollywood. But Monroe was not happy with this role. More and more acutely, the actress realized the discrepancy between the film image that had arisen against her will and her sense of self. She dreamed of the laurels of a serious dramatic actress. The endless struggle with her own image psychologically broke the actress, and the movie star gradually fell into increasing dependence on men, drugs and alcohol. The life of the conqueror of men's hearts ended tragically. After the “sexual revolution” of the 1960s, images of the actress, shocking at the time of their appearance, began to seem almost innocent. But she was not forgotten. This means that there was something about this woman that continues to excite people to this day.
