4.0 out of 5 stars Searching for more of Marilyn you haven't yet seen?, June 22, 2006

This review is from: An Evening with Marilyn (Hardcover)

I have a huge collection of Marilyn books and came across this one of an intimate photographic session Douglas Kirkland did with Marilyn for Look magazine's 25th anniversary edition in 1961. Very much worth the purchase for Marilyn fans - the photos are stunning, Marilyn is stunning! The text is sparse with the occasional typo...but you aren't there for the photographer's text, are you? Marilyn is as lovely as ever, and I would love to see this book in a larger format one day as the rather small format does not do the beautiful images justice. Great behind-the-scenes photos as well. Definitely a book I will be adding to my collection and looking through in years to come.

Me, as a fan, having nearly all written and printed things about MM, it's always a joy to find some new items. The pix in this book are incredibly wonderful. If you like MM and don't have this book, go on and buy! You really will like these fine pictures, honoring the beauty of this legend....

5.0 out of 5 stars An Evening with Marilyn, December 28, 2008

This review is from: An Evening with Marilyn (Hardcover)

A nice 'little'(8x7") book. I would consider it a 'snap shot' of Monroe, taken during an evening, intimate & sexy, but I wouldn't call it erotic. A lot of the photos carry coarse grain, and casted a different mood to the work.

The only thing I would wish is that it could be a bigger print.
