In 1956, fresh from Oxford, the 23-year-old Colin Clark worked as a humble ‘gofer’ on the set of ‘The Prince and the Showgirl’. The film united Britain’s leading actor, Laurence Olivier, with Hollywood’s most glamorous sex symbol, Marilyn Monroe – and clashes between them entered film legend.

For one glorious week, the world’s biggest star sought comfort in the arms of the set’s most junior employee. This is the frank, fresh and comic story of how Clark came to share Monroe’s confidences – and her bed!

Clark’s extraordinary experiences on and off set have now been turned into a major film starring Michelle Williams, Eddie Redmayne, Judi Dench, Emma Watson, Kenneth Branagh and Dominic Cooper.


Reviews:
Colin, Alan Clark’s brother, tells the truly amazingly detailed story (since, made into a movie) of a week he spent involved with Marilyn Monroe, whilst being third associate director (‘gofer’) for the filming of ‘The Prince & The Showgirl’; hired as a family friend of Laurence Olivier and Vivian Leigh. The book is even that more amazing as the details and even existence of the ‘missing week’ were left out of Clark’s original critically acclaimed book on the filming. Ne’er has a book captured the essences of Monroe, and indeed Arthur Miller, Laurence Olivier et al. Great book, great writer, great read. Recommended. 8 out of 12:- Goodreads review
