Distributor NoteWith John Huston directing a cast of Hollywood icons including Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe in a haunting screenplay by Arthur Miller, "The Misfits" was one of the most anticipated films of 1961--but difficult shooting locations, an unruly director, a crumbling marriage, an aging leading man, and an unstable leading lady made the behind-the-scenes story of the film's production anything but ideal. The film would turn out to be the final work of both Gable and Monroe and nearly the last appearance of Montgomery Clift. Luckily nine photographers from the renowned Magnum Agency documented this tale of loners in Reno, Nevada; with complete day-to-day access on the set, their work captured a fascinating tableau of life imitating art and vice versa. Now the stunning Magnum images and new first-person accounts from Arthur Miller, Eli Wallach, and surviving crew members illuminate the twilight moments of this fabled Hollywood production.

Release NoteDVD Features: Product NotesWhen production began on THE MISFITS it looked like the ideal set-up for a movie: Great cast (Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe), great screenplay (by Arthur Miller) and a world renowned director in John Huston. The difficulties began with problematic location shoots and personal problems for all the lead actors, and the director. In fact as it turned out, THE MISFITS saw the final performances of Monroe and Gable. This was all captured by a documentary team of nine photographers, ever-present on the set, and witness to each disaster unfurling. MAKING THE MISFITS presents all the behind the scenes footage, plus recollections from surviving cast and crew members.
