Photo of the Day: Histrionic Moments in Film

The making of an icon.  Click photo to enlarge.

Tom Ewell and Marilyn Monroe in The Seven Year Itch (1955).

Trivia: Notice the sign for Henry Steig's workshop behind Ewell. Steig was a New York artist best known as a silversmith.  His modernist pieces have been exhibited at MoMA and are highly sought by collectors.  Paintings by Henry Steig are in the permanent collection of the Provincetown Art Association and Museum.  Steig's brother was the sculptor, cartoonist and children's book author, William Steig
