It’s almost impossible to review this as unbiased a movie, as it is, to movie buffs at least, such a curio fraction. As everyone knows, the screenplay, written by Arthur Miller, started out as a tribute to his wife, Marilyn Monroe, but proved to be the death knell for their marriage. Though this looks like a “Western”, it is far from it. It is an almost vulgar discover into the coming together of a group of lost souls who have nothing left to lose. This John Houston film was famously fraught with problems, many related to M.M.’s sincere life breakdown, and went over budget, and became, at that time, the most expensive dismal & white film to date, a dubious distinction. That Miller based “Roslyn” on Marilyn is now well known, a portrait at once flattering and brutally fair. If there’s any doubt that Roslyn is M.M., explore for the scene when Marilyn opens a locker, in she & Clarks runt “cherish cottage”, there are well known glamour pin-ups of the valid life Marilyn hung inside, which “Roslyn” refers to as “objective some passe pictures of me.” Also the scene of M.M. & Gable, as they awaken one morning, and she is seen nude from the befriend, is one Marilyn fought for, wanting her breast, which was visible in the rushes, kept in the final film. This was unheard of at that time, and was cleave out of the final print. At the time, M.M. commented: “I appreciate to do things the censors won’t pass, after all, what are we here for, impartial to stand around and let it pass us by? … Gradually, they’ll let down the censorship, sadly, probably not in my lifetime “, a prophetic comment from a woman who was ahead of her time. Though she drove John Houston to distraction during the filming, he years later commented: “Marilyn was as gorgeous an actress as any I ever worked with… she objective reached down within herself and pulled her maintain emotions out, it was genuine.” This film, aside from Clark Gable, also stars satisfactory M.M. friend Montgomery Clift, another exact life misfit, also favorable M.M. friend Eli Wallach, both fellow alumni of The Actors Studio, and the improbable Thelma Ritter, who seems to be the only one first-rate of holding it together. At the films release, during Marilyns now eminent scene in the desert, where she lashes out at the brutality of “the men” as they consume a horse for slaughter, apparently many in the theatres laughed out loud at this unacceptable version of their Marilyn, which is very sunless. I have always found this scene devestating, and only shows the struggle she had to face, in her attempts to grow as an actress, and not be confined by peoples dinky vision of her. Contrary to approved idea, this film was not a total artistic failure, and received many certain reviews at it’s opening. The Modern York Tribune: “Here Miss Monroe is magic but not a living pin-up dangled in skin tight satin, and can anyone remark that in this film, these performers are at their best? ” Modern York Daily News: “Gable has never done anything better on camouflage, nor has Miss Monroe.” The fact that Gable died two weeks after shooting wrapped, and that Marilyn never completed another film, only seals the epic surrounding this films making. In hindsight, it was truly the slay of an era. If you want a intriguing read on the making of this film, try and win the long out of print “The Fable Of The Misfits”, by James Goode. Published in 1963, it’s a day by day sage of the films making, and, though only a year after M.M.’s tragic death, handles her memory with total respect…the yarn had already begun. This dim, but ultimatley hope filled miniature drama, filmed in the almost wearisome desert, is maybe not for the viewer looking for lots of excitement and action. But if you’re a serious viewer who can indulge in brilliantly subtle performances, starring two of filmdoms biggest legends… in a movie steeped in Hollywood folklore, then you’ll bask in this film. How fitting that their final scene has them riding off, heading “for that tremendous star.”
This once nearly forgotten movie, the last film of Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe is now coming forward in the lexicon of film history as an underrated gem. Universally misunderstood for the most piece at the time it came out it is positive now that this film was at least five of six years ahead of it’s time. It fits in more comfortably with films of the leisurely 60’s and early 70’s.

The screenplay by Miller is one of his most striking works. A record of a group of people lost in the wide expanse of the West in search of the discarded souls of their misspent lives. The film’s splendid cinematography by Russell Metty stands out as sterling artistry at the demise of the dusky and white era. It shimmers with the silver of the deep expanse of the desert and the flat grays and blacks of the distant mountains upon which the last act of the yarn plays. The music by Alex North is among his best work and gives a savage punch to the aerial scenes and the round up at the ruin of the wild mustangs.
Montgomery Clift, by now sliding into the last years of his life is touching in his performance of Perce. His broken cowboy with the broken heart is almost painful to gawk. His phone call home to his mother is among some of his best work. Eli Wallach gives a strong deeply racy portrait of Guido who has lost his wife, his plot, and his humanity. He shines in his scene with Monroe where he asks her to establish him. When she can’t to at least say “Hello Guido”.
Thelma Ritter is, well, Thelma Ritter in yet another of her safe character roles. Ritter is the master of the one line wisecrack but here as Isobel she laces the cracks with an underlying sadness and vulnerability.
As Gratified Langland, Clark Gable gives what I think to be the best performance of his career. It was a mettlesome depart for Gable to engage on the role of what on the surface seems another one of his typical macho made to fit parts. But as the chronicle unfolds from Arthur Miller’s pen Happy reveals that beneath his gruff, not a care in the world, cowboy is a man in deep wound and despair at his losses. The world has left him unhurried. Abandoned by his children the drunken Gable breaks so violently it is a shock to study the large man drop. This is Clark Gable at his finest ever.
Marilyn Monroe gives an unbelievable performance as Roslyn Tabler the newly divorced dancer. A damaged woman who finds in the company of these three men something to finally bear in, something to stand up and fight for, she finds life. It is a performance ground out in share from her absorb person and experience and in section by the director John Huston and the editor George Tomasini who helped a nearly destroyed Monroe develop her glorious Roslyn. This, her last performance is her best and the moral example of the collaborative creation that film really is. That Marilyn under the circumstances of her life at that time could be so friendly is a testament to her talent as an actress and a star. Search For her when she is listening to the other actors. This is where she shines; this is the moral trace of a sizable cover actor. To be able to listen and procedure you into the inner life of the character through that deceptively simple act of listening and reaction is her gift to the audience. Her scene with Monty in abet of the bar, sitting on a pile of trash, her afore mentioned scene with Eli Wallach in the speeding car. These are but a few of the examples in this film of her spacious talent. In the 1950’s and early 60’s there were only a handful of stout young actresses in film, Elizabeth Taylor, and Marilyn Monroe where at the summit of the miniature mountain.
