玛丽莲•梦露吸大麻录像曝光

A home movie showing a relaxed Marilyn Monroe apparently smoking marijuana has surfaced, retrieved from an attic some 50 years after it was filmed.

The reel-to-reel silent, color film taken at a private home in New Jersey was recently purchased by collector Keya Morgan for $275,000 from the person who took the film, who has asked to remain anonymous.

Morgan and the person who shot the film gave Reuters permission to use it in shortened form. The copyright of the image will be put up for sale on eBay later this week, Morgan said.

At one point Monroe is passed a cigarette and takes a puff but does not appear to inhale deeply. The person who made the film confirmed that the cigarette contained marijuana, saying: "I got it (the pot). It was mine. It was just passed around."

"It was not a party. It was just a get-together. You know, come over and hang out," the person said.

Morgan, a collector of historical photos, manuscripts, autographs and documents, is also working on a documentary on the death of Monroe in August 1962.

He learned of the film during his research and tracked down the owner, who kept it as part of an archive that was moved between various homes over the years. The Monroe film had been stored in an attic for three years before Morgan tracked it down.

The actress appears happy and relaxed at a small gathering of friends that Morgan dates to 1958 or 1959, based on her appearance.

"This is the late '50s so she is already very famous, but this is a personal side of her we've never seen before. People have never seen her in such a relaxed pose," Morgan said.

日前,玛丽莲·梦露的一段被“雪藏”在阁楼50年的家庭录像曝光,从录像中可以看到玛丽莲·梦露貌似正吸食大麻,看上去非常放松。

这部拍摄于新泽西州一个私人家中的无声彩色影像带近日被收藏家凯亚•摩根以27.5万美元的高价从录像拍摄人手中买下。该影片的拍摄者不愿透露自己的姓名。

摩根和录像拍摄者允许路透社使用片中的部分内容。摩根说,该影像的版权将于本周晚些时候在易趣网上拍卖。

从录像中可以看到,当时梦露接过一支烟,吸了一口,但看上去没有猛吸。影片拍摄者证实那支香烟含有大麻,并说:“大麻是我搞到的,是我的,当时我们只是互相传着吸。”

这位拍摄者说:“当时我们并没有开派对,只是一个朋友聚会,就是大家过来,一起玩玩。”

摩根专门收藏历史照片、手稿、亲笔签名和文献。目前他正参与制作一部关于梦露之死的纪录片。梦露于1962年8月去世。

摩根在调查中得知这部影片,继而找到影片的所有者。尽管影片所有者数年来多次搬家,但一直将它保存得很好。摩根找到它时,它已经在阁楼中被存放了三年。

梦露在这次小型朋友聚会上看起来很开心,也很放松。据摩根鉴定,从梦露的容貌来看,这次聚会应该是在1958年或1959年。

摩根说:“那是在50年代末,那时她已经非常出名了,不过这是我们从未见过的她私下的一面。人们从未见过她这么放松的样子。”
