I missed this one yesterday.A 15-minute film of Marilyn Monroe engaging in an oral sex act with an unidentified man will be kept from public view by a New York businessman who has bought it for $US1.5 million ($A1.6 million), the broker of the deal said.It was probably Joe D's penis.
Memorabilia collector Keya Morgan said he recently arranged the sale of the silent, black-and-white film from the son of a dead FBI informant who possessed it to a wealthy Manhattan businessman who wants to protect Monroe's privacy.
"The gentleman who bought it said out of respect for Marilyn he's not going to make a joke of it and put it on the internet and try to exploit her," said memorabilia collector Keya Morgan. "That's not his intention and I would never get my name involved if that were to happen."
Monroe is clothed and the man's head remains out of the frame for the entire 15 minutes of the film, said Morgan, who viewed the film.
Monroe was rumoured to have had an affair with former US president John F Kennedy, and Morgan said former FBI director J Edgar Hoover, a Kennedy rival, went to great lengths to try to prove it was Kennedy in the film.
One of Monroe's ex-husbands, the late baseball great Joe DiMaggio, once tried to buy it from the collector for $S25,000 but "he would not part with it", according to declassified FBI files provided by Morgan.
Morgan is a well-known collector who owns memorabilia from the estates of Monroe and DiMaggio and said he was friends with Monroe's other two husbands, Jim Dougherty and Arthur Miller.
There's nothing like porn of yesteryear, especially if it involves stars. I think Hedy Lamarr was found to have done a skin flick back in Austria. She was asked for an explanation by Louis B. Meyer who feared scandals for his stars, and she answered "yes."
Louis B. Meyer then asked her, "did you look good?"
"Why, of course," she replied.
Anyway, I thought it was interesting this article surfaced in the wake of the previous story about Doris and Mick.
