Marilyn's posters - across here entire filmography - often to do not look like 
Marilyn.  Very few of the illustrations get
it really right.  Most of them are Marilyn-like.  This is often the case with 
film posters.  The image of Veronica Lake on THIS GUN FOR HIRE does not look 
like
Veronica Lake.  Some Blonde is pictured.

So here's a question for the list - excepting photographs - which illustrations 
on film posters really get the image of a star -
doesn't matter which one - REALLY right?

I point to the Roger Souble portrait of Veronica Lake.  There is art that 
really captures the look and the essence of the star's appeal.
