    I just watched some of Red River here on youtube last night. I have seen in the past, but this time I noticed something Monty did that hadn't caught my eye before. The way he mounts a horse from the ground. He is not a tall guy, but in one motion he leaps up putting his left foot into the stirrup and swings his right leg over the saddle - and boom, he is mounted! It is like he does it all in mid air. I guarantee ye, John Wayne couldn't do that! He does it twice early in the movie, before they move out for Missouri.

      The older I get, the less I pay attention to critics. They're generally misinformed and/or off the mark. Proclaiming that Cliffs acting had diminished in later years, is a prime example of how idiotic critics can be. The Misfits, The Young Lions, Freud, The Defector, Judgement at Nuremburg. 'Diminished', my arse! His face may have been altered, but his talent hadn't diminished, one iota. If anything, he even got better. Critics. Good Christ.

    What he didn't realise was that scars often add character and immense sexiness. While I definitely can't compare with such a handsome man, I have scarring on my forehead and nose due to a car accident, and, at 54, some people still find me relatively attractive. To me, he was more manly, more rugged after the crash.

    Montgomery Clift was not only a good actor but he was so handsome. Sad he did not come out about being gay. Entertainment Tonight got it wrong he was NOT BISEXUAL.

      In those days people cared about what other people thought. It was a better world in so many ways. I respect Montgomery Clift's desire to not hurt other people by blaring out to the world what his sexual orientation happened to be. That's an act of consideration. It was a better world. I'm sure he suffered.

      c3-8ate, I don't get the point. Whose business is it what Montgomery Clift's private life was all about. If he didn't or doesn't want to tell anyone is personal business what right does anyone have to take a club to him and demand answers? In my opinion, none. No right at all.

      A Boston It’s because back then his coming out would have destroyed his career. Plus it would have led to a massive witch hunt and even more repression of gay Hollywood. I’ve read his biography as well as many other Hollywood historical books. He actually didn’t care if people knew but he didn’t want to hurt others. It was nobody’s business anyway.

    What a lousy bio. It got the chronology backwards, and just about everything else wrong.
    He didn’t drink because of the accident, he had the accident because he was dead drunk.
    He didn’t live alone towards the end of his life, he had a live-in boyfriend.
    He wasn’t “sensitive,” he was a complete jerk.
