"My Week With Marilyn" (2011) - Trailer, synopsis

This upcoming film tells a story about Marilyn Monroe's first visit to the UK, while she was filming "The Prince and the Showgirl" along with Laurence Olivier. They had a very tense relationship, which made their work incredibly complicated. And then one of the most famous women of all times meets Colin Clark, a 23 year-old assistant, who is charming and totally adores her. They spend together one unforgettable week, which brings Marilyn some crazy thoughts about leaving her world and starting a new life here, in England. But there is a catch. She is a newlywed.

It seems to be very dramatic, sometimes desperate, but also romantic and breathtaking story of a famous woman and a guy, who has nothing but to show her a different world, where she can be herself and don't play someone's roles.

Based on a true story.

Starring Michelle Williams, Kenneth Branagh, Eddie Redmayne, Dominic Cooper with Emma Watson and Judi Dench.
Directed by Simon Curtis ("David Copperfield" 2000, "A Short Stay In Switzerland" 2009).
