well, I found that Wilder quote where he says about Marilyn:
"My Aunt Minnie would always
be punctual and never hold up production, but who would pay to see my Aunt Minnie?"
... I think that Marilyn was a very compicated woman and that it wasn´t easy to work with her because of all her crying fits,unpunctuality and forgetting her lines.
and Wilder loves to exaggerate a bit. so I...

beginning to end.
The rest are so close though! Wow.. now I'm not even sure. :)
