my week with marilyn (2011)

"Remember boy when it comes to women, you are never too old for humiliation."
The true story of Colin Clark (Eddie Redmayne), first job, as 3rd assistant director on The Prince and the Showgirl, and gofer to Lawrence Olivier (Kenneth Branagh). This also makes him interesting to the film's star Marilyn Monroe (Michelle Williams), who is attracted to him, but also wants to know about the director's motivations.
Fascinating insight into how tumultuous the making of a film could be, and the disruption that Marilyn's insecurity could cause. Even if it comes on as a naive boys fantasy.
