MARILYN MONROE: THE FINAL DAYS is the AMC documentary that has been made available on a bonus disc in 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment's Marilyn Monroe: The Diamond Collection. Narrated by James Coburn, The documentary focuses on the troubled production of Marilyn's final, uncompleted film, which was entitled SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE. Utilizing records from the studio archive as well as interviews with surviving members of the production team and other concerned parties, the documentary pieces together a portrait of the final days of the troubled star.

IMDB Rating: 7.8/10

Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days (2001)

Marilyn didn't want to make SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE, but she was contractually obligated to star in the film for 20th Century Fox. Of course, there were problems right from the start, with illness and Marilyn’s own personal demons keeping her away from the set much of the time. Everyone, including the film’s director George Cukor, was driven to exasperation but Marilyn’s inability to show up for work, especially when her presence was desperately required.

While Marilyn was eventually fired for her continued absences, the studio reluctantly rehired her when they learned that they could not recast her part because of co-star Dean Martin's contract. Unfortunately, before SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE could be competed, Marilyn met her tragic end.

My favorite aspect of the program is the assembly of roughly thirty-five minutes of raw footage from the production of SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE into a coherent form. For those that don’t know, SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE was to be a remake of the popular Cary Grant film MY FAVORITE WIFE. Marilyn was to play a woman who was been declared dead, as a result of having been missing for five years after a boating accident. However, after being rescued from an uncharted island, Marilyn’s character returns home to discover that her husband (Dean Martin) is now married to another woman (Cyd Charisse). Judging from the scenes presented,

Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days (2001)

I would say SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE would have been an enjoyable little film that would have benefited from Marilyn’s screen presence. Marilyn never looked more radiant than she appeared in SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE and certain aspects of her performance showed an accomplished maturity that made her sweet, touching and very funny- all at the same time. The cast of the uncompleted SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE also included Phil Silvers, Steve Allen and Wally Cox. FYI, the aborted project eventually came to the screen as MOVE OVER, DARLING with Doris Day and James Garner.

Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days (2001)

Over 40 years after Marilyn Monroe's death halted production on 20th Century Fox' s light comedy Something's Got to Give, this celebration of the ultimate screen goddess offers viewers the world premiere of the 37-minute reconstruction of her final film. It is one last look at a film that might have been - and a star who will live forever on screen. Using state-of-the-art digital technology, footage was painstakingly restored to its original CinemaScope splendor. Arranged as it would have appeared on the big screen, the film reveals the sweet and always stunning screen performance of Monroe playing the part of a wife and mother. Lots of bonus features.

Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days (2001)

The enigma of Marilyn Monroe's final project comes to light in this documentary, which features a restoration of the film which she was working on when she died. Directed by George Cukor, the film was called SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE, and co-starred Dean Martin and Cyd Charisse. But the production was troubled by Marilyn's instability. She was fired and rehired, and died before filming was completed, and the footage that remains is assembled here as it would have appeared in the final piece, lovingly restored to its original CinemaScope. Narrated by James Coburn (THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN), the documentary provides new information about Marilyn's last days, as her vulnerability and volatility become clear in never-before-seen backstage footage, interviews with Marilyn and her co-stars, and hair, make-up, and costume tests.

Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days (2001)

Fox's DVD of Marilyn Monroe: The Final Days features the documentary in full-frame (1.33:1) and the feature Something's Got to Give in widescreen (2.35:1), with audio in Dolby 2.0 stereo. Also includes a brief Movietone newsreel and trailer for Cleopatra. Keep-case.

Recovery Volumes (.rev)

Recovery volumes or .rev files are special files which can be created by WinRAR/RAR and allow you to reconstruct missing and damaged files in a volume set. They can
only be used with multi-volume archives.

This feature may be useful for backups or, for example, when you post a multivolume archive to a newsgroup and some of the subscribers did not receive some files. Reposting recovery volumes instead of usual volumes may reduce the total number of files to repost.

Each recovery volume is able to reconstruct one missing RAR volume. For example, if you have 30 volumes and 3 recovery volumes, you are able to reconstruct any 3 missing volumes. If the number of .rev files is less than a number of missing volumes, reconstructing is impossible. The total number of usual and recovery volumes must not exceed 255 and the number of recovery volumes must be less than the number of RAR volumes.

WinRAR reconstructs missing and damaged volumes either when clicking on .rev file, or when using rc command or automatically, if it cannot locate the next volume and finds the required number of .rev files when unpacking.

You may use the "Recovery volumes" option in the Archive name and parameters dialog or a similar option also appears in the Protect archive command to create recovery volumes. In the command line mode you may do it with -rv switch or rv command.

Original copies of damaged volumes are renamed to *.bad before reconstruction. For example, volname.part03.rar will be renamed to volname.part03.rar.bad.
