Sidestepping the tragic figure presented in other books,
"Marilyn Monroe: Platinum Fox" provides a light-hearted and
humorous look at a legend like no other! Sixty years after her
image first flickered on the screen, Marilyn Monroe remains the
ultimate Hollywood star, a face and name more recognizable than
current performers. What remains to be explored about ''Marilyn''?
Here we celebrate what first made her a star. Profusely illustrated
with colour and black and white stills from the 20th Century Fox
archives - some of which will be seen for the first time in this
book - "Marilyn Monroe: Platinum Fox" focuses on quintessential
Marilyn in classics like "Gentleman Prefer Blondes", "The Seven
Year Itch" and her other Fox films. The text is filled with
behind-the-scenes stories, memorable movie quotes, film facts,
trivia, plotlines, character profiles and highlights of the most
Marilyn moments.
