Marilyn Monroe would have turned 70 last Saturday. This documentary uses compelling new evidence to reconstruct the last hours of Monroe's life and the strange delay between the discovery of her body and Peter Lawford's call to the police. It recounts how Mafia chiefs trailed Monroe in the last months of her life, determined to find damning proof of her love affairs with Jack and Robert Kennedy.
For the first time, the key official who investigated her death claims that Marilyn Monroe was murdered and explains why he now wants her case reopened.
