Marilyn’s Movie Marathon in Quiberon

A weekend marathon of Marilyn’s movies at Cinéma Le Paradis in Quiberon, France begins on Friday, April 10, with Niagara showing at 8:30 pm. River Of No Return is showing on Saturday, April 11, followed by Some Like It Hot at 8:30 pm; and the marathon concludes with The Misfits on Sunday, April 12 at 8:30 pm.

Concurrently, Maison de la Presse will launch a pop-up bookstore on Saturday; and a selection of film posters is now on display in the media library until May 2. (The marathon poster features Philippe Halsman’s famous ‘Jump’ shot of Marilyn, which made the cover of LIFE magazine back in 1959.)

The weekend’s events will be presented by Juliette Michaud, a member of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which hosts the Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles. She is also the author of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2014), a history of the movie capital published in English and French editions, with Marilyn and her Some Like It Hot co-stars featured on the cover – and unrelated to Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 blockbuster of the same name.
