This candid picture was taken during a photoshoot - a moment when Marilyn wasn't posing.

Sometimes beauty and sensuality mask the sadness that lies beneath.

So much pathos and also vulnerability. That same vulnerability that seems to have made her so erotically attractive to so many. A vulnerability that was quite possibly a double-edged emotional sword for her, I suppose. Touching photo of her, thanks.

She looks lost . . .

She looks lost, as if she badly needed a friend to just hug her and hold her and be kind to her. A reminder that the person who seems to have it all may be as much in need of help and friendship as anyone.
