Marilyn Monroe (Movie Icons) Reviews:
Marily books forever 
2008-11-19 - Yes, another Marilyn picture book. Most pictures previously published, but a few new ones. I liked the format of the book and the good price. The seller provided very good service - quick, courteous, accurate.
Nice Pictures! 
2008-03-04 - Thats one especially great thing I can say about this book is the quantity of pictures. I own alot of Monroe books and I got alot more from this book than I expected. Lots of valuable info for new Marilyn fans also. Great book at great price!
1st rate Marilyn Monroe Primer! 
2007-05-07 - This is a good book for those that are "new" to Marilyn.
Packed with photographs, most in color & a few rare shots; the story about Marilyn's life & films is rather skimpy however. A two page summary of Marilyn's life introduces us to the subject at hand. Picture captions "teasing" the reader with tidbits of information will hopefully pique one's interest enough to read other books to obtain the entire story of Monroe's life because that is it for the facts this book relates! Marilyn's quotes are scattered liberally throughout the book in 3 different languages, as is all text; English, German, & French.
Strangely enough, even when dealing with the parameters of this format; the film BUS STOP though highly praised is only given two photographs. Most of Marilyn's later work gets 6 or more pictures with the narrative captions.
