Marilyn Monroe at the Movies

A stunning and fascinating celebration of one of the world's most treasured film stars, following her life and the movies she made.

Marilyn Monroe is one of the most cherished film stars and celebrated icons of American popular culture. The intrigue that surrounds her life and death continues to fascinate us today as the centenary of her birth approaches.

This book follows the narrative of Marilyn’s life through a chronology of her 30 films and the stories behind the scenes. From her early days as Norma Jeane and her roles in films such as Scudda Hoo! Scudda Hay! (1948) to her scene-stealing characters in movies such as Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), she cemented a career as one of the most popular stars in the world. Remembered for her romantic comedies and musicals, as well as setting up her own production company, she never failed to captivate audiences. However, this was not without its challenges and Marilyn’s personal struggles intensified in the later years, particular with films such as Let’s Make Love (1960) and Misfits (1961). Through 9 chapters and 4 standalone ‘breakout’ spreads on the themes of costume designs, performances, awards and a year in New York, this is a tribute to her legacy.

With a beautiful design and stunning images, this book is a celebration of the image and style of Marilyn through her life and the stories behind the movies she made.
