A Compromise
Monroe and Fox joined forces once again as they signed a seven-year contract. MMP wouldn't be financially stable alone, and Fox would pay $100,000 per film to make four films. Her new contract also allowed her to choose projects she liked, directors she liked, and cinematographers. Additionally, every film completed for Fox meant one completed for MMP.
Third Marriage
Monroe and Miller were married on June 29th, 1956. Monroe was so dedicated to her husband that she converted to Judaism, which caused all of her films to be banned in Egypt. Media headlines dubbed the marriage "Egghead Weds Hourglass" due to Miller's intellectual image and Monroe's sex symbol status.
