The FBI, Marilyn, XXX, and $1.5mil

An unidentified New York businessman has paid $1.5 million for the only known duplicate of a film showing Marilyn Monroe performing oral sex on an unidentified man. The original copy of the film is owned by the FBI.

The footage appears to have been shot in the 1950s. When it came to light in the mid-'60s, then-FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had his agents spend two weeks futilely trying to prove that Monroe's sex partner was either John F. Kennedy or Robert F. Kennedy, according to declassified agency documents and interviews, Morgan said.
