The personal life of the Hollywood diva Marilyn Monroe is still not very clear even to her biographers. In general, one thing is more or less clear: the life of a star is definitely not boring. And even if you do not touch on the numerous novels of the actress, interesting details emerge. For example, it is now rumored that Marilyn was associated with the KGB.

“According to the former KGB officer Lyudmila Temnova, Marilyn Monroe was in contact with the Soviet secret services. She even had a code name - "Masha" ", - reports the Italian edition of Panorama.

This is a documentary film "Monroe in Dostoevsky's Country", which was first shown in Russia at the end of last year, and is only being released in the West now. The film tells about the visit of a Hollywood star to the USSR.

The story began quite romantically. At a reception at the Soviet embassy on the occasion of Nikita Khrushchev's visit to the United States, Marilyn met a certain Soviet agent. A friendship struck up between them, which soon enough grew into a "certain feeling."

By the way, in the summer of 1956, the FBI received information according to which Monroe sympathized with the communists.

“There is no direct evidence in the film, only stories,” the Panorama article is quoted by Newsru.com. - So, a man who chose not to reveal his real name insists that he had a special relationship with the actress. He allegedly invited Monroe to his place in Moscow, met her at the airport, took her to a hotel overlooking the Kremlin, and then they drove to their dacha. “Those were two unforgettable days,” says the former agent, who was then 27 years old. “But there was a certain tension in our relationship, we understood that the fact that we were alone did not mean that no one could see or hear us. ", - he says, hinting at the presence of bugs. After this meeting, they never saw each other, their relationship ended completely."
