Marilyn Monroe 1926-1962
A screening of Some Like It Hot at the Assembly House ballroom in Norwich on April 21 will, for one night only, return the venue to its former glory as the Noverre Cinema, which closed in 1992 after forty years, reports the Eastern Daily Press.
Dr Sarah Churchwell, author of The Many Lives of Marilyn Monroe, presents a free lunchtime talk, ‘Becoming Marilyn: The Invention of Marilyn Monroe’, as part of the ‘American Lives’ week presented by the University of East Anglia’s School of American Studies at The Forum, Norwich, on Thursday July 7 between 12-1pm. (On a related note, Christopher Bigsby, author of a two-volume biography of Arthur Miller, will speak on Friday July 8.)
