My favourite photograph of Marianne Faithfull, shot by @GeredMankowitz at The Salisbury pub in London, 1964
I love this! @emilie_sandy's shot of @GeredMankowitz in the same pub - the Salisbury on St. Martin's Lane - where he took his classic photo of Marianne Faithfull for her 1965 album Come My Way.
I have very fond memories of seeing Tony Richardson's film of Hamlet, with Nicol Williamson & Marianne Faithfull, in 1969.
"From the author of 'Romeo and Juliet'."
Gotta say it: LOL! And I *never* say LOL!
