Sheree North was born on July 17th, 1933. 

 

 Quite as Marilyn she was quartered in roles of blonde seductive deck. And so when that Marilyn refused to shoot in the film " The girl in pink tights ", she was replaced by Sheree.

Off course the event caused a big stir, but no rivalry ever weaved between both women. On the contrary, Sheree understood perfectly Marilyn and liked him a lot.

And it is moreover her who played Gladys (the mother of Marilyn) in the document fiction " The untold story " in 1990.

 

Not that to chronicle for hours I let you read these words with which Sheree spoke about Marilyn...

About the work in studios

" For them, Marilyn was a clown. They made the worst jokes on her. When she roamed in studios people followed her and copied her step. But if she turned around, everybody stopped. It was the object of the lowest mockeries of everyone."

About her roles

"She wanted more serious roles because she took her work seriously. She had had her part of glamour, at the moment she wished a more durable gratitude. "

About Marilyn's replacement by Sheree

"For my essays in Fox I have had to put on all the Marilyn's dresses. And execute all the shows of the girl in pink tights. I do not believe that they wanted to pour me into her mould so by decking out me and by summoning all the press to announce that I replaced her. I believe that they wanted to force her to return and to submit themselves. They used me to force her to make what they wanted".

About the Actor's Studio lessons
  
"When we want to reach the quality of set at which aimed Marilyn, it is necessary to use the method. That is to plunge into his own internal chaos what can be terrifying."

About her role in Bus Stop

"I believe that she had very strong links with this character and that she understood him very well. It is doubtless one of its roles best."

About the hook of sleeping drugs

"When we work in particular on a shooting, we do not sleep. The production supplies a person whom everybody calls "Doc" while everything in best it is about a male nurse. And if you have problems of sleep this "Doc" says to you: " like take that, that will help you " .On takes it and God thank you this time, we sleep. We can get up in the morning and to work. Because otherwise we cross the night to wonder how we are going to say such or tellle replica.Averagely what one becomes hooked on sleeping drugs.And the next day "Doc" asks you: "How are you?" - " I feel completely dulled " and we refile you of the benzedrine, you swallow it and you are woken well  all day long. It is like that that that takes place. In the time we did not speak about side effects. When a doctor gave you tablets it was for your good, it is of what we thought at least.And Marilyn became hooked, as the others, without knowing it. "
