What Really Happened to Marilyn Monroe?

New Film Thriller Will Explore the Last Three Days of the Icon's Life and Conspiracy Theories Surrounding Her Death

2013-01-19

LOS ANGELES, CA, January 19, 2013 (Press-News.org) Los Angeles-based Bungalow 42 Productions is in development of the film adaptation of Don O'Melveny's best-selling novel No City for Dreaming, a thrilling story that artfully blends fact with fiction to give a unique take on the details of the last three days of Marilyn Monroe's life from the point of view of a fledgling private detective. The feature is being directed by Drew Ann Rosenberg (Hole in One, Saints & Sinners, 1st AD on L.A. Confidential, Lackawanna Blues) with production beginning this summer.

"No City for Dreaming is an incredibly suspenseful and well-crafted story," says Rosenberg. "Add to that the opportunity to shed light on a huge unsolved mystery, surrounding a goddess of the screen - the prospect of directing seemed like a dream come true for me."

For over fifty years now, Monroe's mysterious death on August 5, 1962 has continued to haunt the American psyche, and has become one of the most debated conspiracy theories in history. Was it an accident or something more? What really happened that fateful night in her Brentwood home? These questions still go unanswered ... until now.

No City for Dreaming is co-written by O'Melveny (The Last Year in the Life of Marilyn Monroe) and Michael Engel (Nightforce) and produced by Stephen Kerr and Nina Boski. David Silva (Thirteen Days, Message in a Bottle, Green Hornet) will serve as Line Producer and Jennifer Goldstein (Mysterious Skin) is casting.

What people have said about No City for Dreaming:
"History is sometimes best revealed through the lens of fiction. Read this Hollywood sizzler and see why." - Mark Rydell, director of On Golden Pond, The Rose, and the James Dean Story

"Hollywood noir mashed up with Cuban missile crisis-conspiracy theories and the shadowy death of Marilyn Monroe. An often thrilling and multidimensional literary experience" - Kirkus Reviews

"No City For Dreaming presents a fascinating fictional account of the days surrounding the death of Marilyn Monroe." - Greg Schreiner, President of Marilyn Remembered, the longest-running Monroe fan club
