"...sentiments can vanish like smoke, talk is chea

GRACE KELLY as FRANCES STEVENS

Marilyn Monroe by Eve Arnold, 1955

“She had learned the trick of moving infintesimally to stay in range, so that the photographer need not refocus but could easily follow movements that were endlessly changing. Often she would seem a shimmering, molten wraith. She could be elusive, tantalizing. For each photographer she would be different, responding to the vibrations, but using herself and bringing forth different facets of herself…it was magic. With her it was never a formula; it was her will, her improvisation. She captured the imagination and heightened the atmosphere.”

She looks on the screen as if you could reach out and touch her… she had a quality no-one else ever had on the screen except Garbo.” - Billy Wilder
