    You do have to wonder what the heck is going on in Pic #1! Maybe you need to see the whole Movie.

      Looks like Marilyn and screenwriter/hubby Arthur Miller on location (Reno, Nevada?) for her (and Clark Gable's) last released movie. Was it "The Misfits"? Not sure of the title.

      The haunted and doomed Montgomery Clift managed to appear in a few more.

        Pic #1- Pretty obvious Rich, he's buying her a hotdog, and the Stude is next in line.

        Pic# 2- Now that's a FIRECRACKER!

        Happy July 4th everyone! And God Bless those who fought and died for our Freedom to celebrate!

          To me, it looks like the 1953 Studebaker is parked on the street at a meter and they are on the sidewalk at a vendor cart.
          I can't tell what she is looking at (not the hot dog) - maybe a tip jar.
          I think that his one extended finger is to indicate that he only wants one, for her. He is too busy with his fresh cigarette.

            Marilyn is so much more sensuous and desirable looking than so many current "celebrities" whose only talents seem to be hanging all their parts out for anyone who will look and being terrible role models.

            Marilyn knew how to use the camera as its subject.

              Indeed she did and without one visit to the plastic surgeon.

                The movie I liked best with her is "The River of No Return" with Robert Mitchum. Just my personal opinion.

                  Maybe this photo (no. 1) is where Michael Jackson got the 'One Glove' idea.

                    Sorry, but medical records have shown for years that she had a chin implant about 1950 and a nose job a few years later. She also consulted with a plastic surgeon a couple of months before she died in 1962. One might imagine that visit was for youth-restoring suggestions.

                        New York City, 1957.

                        Here's more from the same roll:

                          Thanks for that, CJ. In the first shot, we get a much better look at the car. Seems, Marilyn was careful not to eat the bun. Typical of her. Sinning, but not too much...

                            He wasn't a bad looking guy, but marrying Marilyn Monroe was fighting above his weight class for sure. That mismatch was right up there with Mickey Rooney marrying Ava Gardner, Orson Welles landing Rita Hayworth or more recently Julia Roberts marrying Lyle Lovett.

                            Gives hope to dopey looking guys everywhere. There should be a statue of him.

                              I agree with your statement but she did on occasion let all her parts hang out.
