The Misfits is a remarkable film for various reasons. It was directed by one of Hollywoods great old school directors, John Huston. It was the last film for two Hollywood legends, Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe, as well as one of the last films for another one, Montgomery Clift, all of whom gave outstanding performances. Its also the only original screenplay ever written by Arthur Miller whos marriage to Monroe was breaking down during the shooting of the film. The result is a uniquely dark drama about a divorced woman spending time in the Nevada desert with some cowboys, the disappearance of the old west and mortality. For such a high profile film with so much star power, the film did not do well at the box-office at the time of release. Nowadays its considered a classic.
