About this listen

Sir Laurence Olivier directed her. Eve Arnold observed her.

Where The Prince and the Showgirl delivered 117 minutes of Technicolor fantasy, Eve Arnold's black-and-white photograph of Marilyn Monroe amid a crowd of reporters reveals the scrutiny beneath the stardom. In a moment orchestrated for headlines, Arnold captured something rarely afforded to the mid-century icon: stillness, subtlety, and the assertion of agency.
