The recordings were a hell, because they took place in the Nevada desert, far from civilization. Monroe rehearsed until late at night with her personal coach Paula Strasberg the text for the next day. Along with her alcohol and drug use led to frequent late or simply not show up. Halfway through the shooting sent the Director John Huston, who also called a SIP OIR was on the menu and sometimes fell asleep during the shooting, her to a clinic to get rid of her addiction.

With us president John f. Kennedy, she would have had an affair according to these rumors, but after he was fed up with her, it would have carried her over to his brother Bobby Kennedy. When this hair would have dropped, Monroe would have gone through the Ribbon, and an attempt at blackmail have done.

The general public was ignorant of the drug use in the 1960s by Monroe. Therefore, her death came unexpectedly for outsiders. That gave then also includes diet to speculation about the cause of death. Also the occurrence of Monroe on a birthday of president Kennedy, they sang in May 1962 on a strikingly sultry way Happy Birthday to the president, gave food to the above speculation afterwards.
