I loved how the film got people arguing about a movie again, as in it's the foyer of a film festival. The music is divine. The photography. Many of the images have stayed with me. It's long. Don't think it needed to be. It makes the same point again and again - she was mistreated by men. And her crazy mother.
People say it's made up. Well, a lot of it could've happened. Joe di Maggio did beat her. Zanuck could've raped her. She could've had a fling with JFK. You didn't head the head job scene, I don't think. I know why it was there. I just didn't think it didn't need to be.
It was a slog at times, it was hard at times. I get why people don't like it. But it stimulated me.
Ana de Armas is terrific.
