I'm in the middle of reading 'Marilyn Monroe - The Personal Archives' at the moment, so I guess it is of no surprise that Marilyn gets the ticket this week.

I drew a portrait of her once. I have found her intriguing too. Love her in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", but the whole way through most of her films, I feel a sense of sadness at how she was forced into those "dumb blonde" roles.
ReplyDelete'It takes a smart brunette to play a dumb blonde', another quote from Marilyn!
ReplyDeleteLove both quotes. Laughed at the name of your blog. Shouldn't it be "121 socks" as they never match up evenly after a washing!
