Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
It was the last roundup for Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe, who gave their final performances in this melancholy modern Western. Arthur Miller wrote the script (some say overwrote) as a contemplation of his then-wife, Monroe, and set the piece in the half-world of Reno, Nevada. The dangers of this kind of meta-fictional approach are not entirely avoided, but the clean, clear-eyed direction of John Huston keeps the film grounded. And then there are the people: Gable a warrior past his time, Monroe overwhelmed by the world and its attentions, Montgomery Clift visibly broken in pieces, Eli Wallach a postwar neurotic. If the encroaching mortality of Gable, Monroe, and Clift weren't enough, the stark photography and Alex North's score confirm this as a film about loss. It may have its problems, but seen at a distance of many years, The Misfits scatters its tender mercies with an aching beauty. --Robert Horton

As the story opens, lost-soul Roslyn (Marilyn Monroe) has just arrived in Reno to get a quickie divorce. She meets Guido (Eli Wallach), a sensitive mechanic and his pal Gay (Clark Gable), an aging cowboy. Both men fall in love with her and she ends up living with Gay in Guido's house. The men take Roslyn out the desert to go "mustangin'," but she's horrified when she learns the purpose of their trip.
This story is about four aimless and rather pathetic people who have nothing to do ... Read More

I have never seen Monroe's movie before. After reading "Blonde" by Joyce Carol Oates, I decided to buy this and several other Monroe DVD's. This was the first one I saw. Wow, what a beautiful actress! She makes today's actresses pale in comparison. You can tell Authur Miller wrote this screenplay with a lot of love to his beautiful wife. It was well casted; however, I disagree with the title. I don't think any of them were misfits. They just don't know what they want out of life - confused ... Read More

Marilyn Monroe and Gable at their best in a screenplay by Arthur Miller and direction by John Huston. Montgomery Clift, Thelma Ritter, and Eli Wallach at the height of their craft. Some epic Miller lines like Wallach saying he was blind bombardier in the war, killing people he never saw, and Monroe saying that if she was going to be alone, she would be by herself. A movie worth watching every year or two.

James Barton and Peggy Barton are just fabulous in this film. I'm not sure if they're brother and sister, or brother and transvestite, but they're just wonderful. I'm not even quite sure who they are in the film, but they sure are terrific. Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable are in the film too, it was the last film either of them made. And Thelma Ritter offers great support, and Montgomery Clift and Eli Wallach are excellent too. But I can see why Amazon stresses the contributions of the Bartons. ... Read More

The Misfits was touted as the next great American movie when it was being made. And why not? It was written by Pulitzer prize play write Arthur Miller for his soon to be ex-wife Marilyn Monroe. It was directed by the already legendary John Huston and stared Icon Hollywood actors Clark Gable, Montgomery Clift, and Monroe. For Monroe and Gable it would be there final Film. While received well by the critics at the time it was a box office failure. The average person was not ready for a modern day ... Read More
