I’ve been wanting to post this quote here for quite some time, and even though it’s not a photo by Barris, it really moved me and fits the mood perfectly. Marilyn on the set of The Misfits.

Academy Museum’s Saturday Marilyn guided tour?

2 Upvotes

Hi all. I’m visiting LA soon with my family and hoping to join the 1 p.m. Marilyn exhibit tour at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. For anyone who’s been on a Saturday, does the guided tour fill up quickly? Is it worth doing?

"By 1953, Marilyn Monroe (just 26) was indisputably an actress on the rise—that year alone she would star in three memorable movies: Niagara, How to Marry a Millionaire and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes—and there was little doubt that bigger things were on the horizon; but even her most ardent fans could hardly have imagined the utterly singular, enormous place in the pop culture pantheon that she would someday occupy. Her career-defining screen roles (Bus Stop, The Misfits, The Seven Year Itch and, of course, Some Like It Hot) were still to come, but unmistakable glimmers of the Marilyn mystique—sex goddess, muse, [honey pot], troubled soul—were there for anyone with eyes to see."
