Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 5/5 --
A glorious, brave, imperfect portrait of flawed people yearning for freedom and respect, but pulled by the primal urges of love, lust and pride to trap themselves in cages of their own crafting.

Sarasota Herald-Tribune
Rating: 4/5 --
Somehow the flat, arid Nevada landscape mirrors the characters' bleak existence and sets the overall mood of despair and depression.

Radio Times
Rating: 4/5 --
A gripping and messy ode to the collision of genres, time periods, and personalities.
Little White Lies
Gable has never done anything better on the screen, nor has Miss Monroe. Gable's acting is vibrant and lusty, hers true to the character as written by Miller.

Rating: 8/10 --
Such a fantastic acting showcase that it's easy to lose sight of the fact that a top-shelf talent like John Huston directed.

Antagony & Ecstasy
Rating: 3/5 --
John Huston's latter-day western exerts a doomy, morbid fascination that goes beyond what we see on the screen.

The faces of Gable, Clift and Monroe together in closeup have a Mount Rushmore look to them.

Product Description:
Sophisticated, but emotionally crippled Roslyn (Marilyn Monroe, giving what many believe to be her strongest performance) has come to Nevada to gain a quick and easy divorce. When her landlady introduces her to aging, broken cowboy Gay Langland (Clark Gable), she finally finds herself with a worthy partner. Meanwhile, Gay and his fellow horsemen Guido and Perce (Eli Wallach and Montgomery Clift) scheme to capture a herd of wild horses. Though megawatt star power and a brilliant script by Arthur Miller failed to turn THE MISFITS into box office success (probably due a legendarily troubled shoot), time and critical reputation treated it very kindly. It was the final film for icons Gable and Monroe.
