What do we see in this picture? Nothing. But I'm not going to write down what we do see, because that would ruin the movie experience totally.
Monroe, or someone who looks like Monroe, is shown here in the erotic images that made quite a scandal in the time they were filmed. But scandal or no scandal, I guess every man adored these images in that time. Nowadays, we don't need soft erotic images. Our society is changed so much that we have to see full frontal nudity to be excited. I'm telling you this because I was a bit bored when I saw 'Marilyn Times Five'.
Another thing: what's the title about? We see Monroe in different camera angels, but is that all there is to make a movie? On the background we here Monroe's 'I'm Through with Love'. The first time you hear it, you think it's a beautiful picture. The images and the music, that's fantastic.
But then the song is done. It's true, every song has got an ending. But a few seconds after the song, we hear the same song over and over again! That's pretty dumb, if you ask me. Monroe had lots of songs, why always that song? When the third song (still the same song) started, I didn't want to watch anymore. Perhaps it's really superb when you hear the same song five times in a row, but I don't see the beauty of it. But art can be strange, so watch it if you want to see it.
I gave this experimental movie 6 points.
