Love, Marilyn, the new film by Emmy Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated director, Liz Garbus, opened for a 2-week theatrical run at New York City's Film Forum theater on Friday, November 30th. 

The film premiered internationally at the 2012 Telluride Film Festival, and as a Gala Presentation Film at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival. A. O. Scott of The New York Times reviewed it as "a heady cocktail of journalistic rigor and show business flair, a blend that seems, in the end, just right for its blazingly famous, endlessly enigmatic subject." The film also screened at The London Film Festival and Houston FF and was the Opening Night Film at the 2012 Hamptons International FF. 

The film is screening daily from November 30th through December 11th. Get more information about screening times and purchase tickets online at filmforum.org
