- When Marilyn Monroe fell in love with Bobby Kennedy sparks flew. He, the charismatic politician and she, the beautiful movie star jilted by his brother. She thought he would leave his wife, but that was not to be.
- As the title implies, this is a highly fictionalized account of a supposed sexual relationship Marilyn Monroe had with then-Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy after her supposed affair with his brother JFK, in the days preceding her supposed drug-overdose suicide, which according to this account was actually a cover-up for the relationship the Administration deemed an embarrassment. A number of leaps of faith are taken by the writer and are required by the viewer for this film to make any sense at all of the death of the actress who died at the age of 36. It takes no prisoners and shows little respect for the now-dead major players in the story. Watch it for James Kelly's spot-on portrayal of RFK, not so much for Melody Anderson's Marilyn, done with greater accuracy by Catherine Hicks in Marilyn: The Untold Story.
