Marilyn Monroe was a shimmering on-screen presence - luminous, sensual and larger-than-life.

Certain cinematic images, such as her skirt billowing above the subway in Seven Year Itch, or her dressed in a vivid pink gown singing ‘Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend’, have become iconic. She was a gifted comic actress, with an instinctive feel for timing. And she projected a smouldering sexuality that was revolutionary in the repressive 1950s.

When she was found dead after a suspected overdose on 4 August 1962, millions mourned for her. She will always be remembered as a screen goddess whose warm sensuality and humour pulsated through her movies and her music. In these songs, her essence lives on.
