MARLENE DIETRICH : RARE PHOTOS OVER THE DECADES


A key light above her face gave Marlene 'the look' she was best known for. 
The 'eyebrows' have it. 
In all Marlene's films, lighting was used to sculpt the body, to highlight and soften. 
Marlene was an expert in makeup and developed 'facial contouring' 
 
Every aspect of a shot was thought out, pure perfectionism.

After Hollywood, Marlene toured the world as a cabaret performer well into her 70's.
 
Marlene always updated her look, seen here in the 1960's looking very youthful.
