Brando was so impressed by Clift's acting in A Place in the Sun that he voted for him at the Oscars over himself in Streetcar Named Desire. Doesn't get any better than that.

Yes, absolutelly breathtaking video. Monty had a face of an angel and his eyes were to die for. Lord, what an amazing actor! What a talent. His body language, eye expressions, gentleness could melt the entire Alasca and North Pole together. The song goes together with this outstanding actor and amazing performances. Monty had a rare gift that Hollywood did not know how to make good use of it because they thought they knew it all. Monty was a screen writer.

Montgomery Clift is my favorite actor. I respect his range. Unlike Brando and Dean, he was able to surrender to his more weak and vulnerable side without still projecting an edge. Yet he was able to venture into anger and rage and be equally convincing. To me, he was the actor who brought "The Method" to the screen first and deserves more credit for that.

It’s extraordinarily to think he was before Brando and Dean. It’s equally so that he self capitulated by his mid 40’s. Barely into the middle third of what should have been a long career. So many great roles to play but it wasn’t to be. The man bore his soul on the screen and that’s truly a rare thing. Missed but never forgotten. A beautiful tribute. The edit, the music, the imagery and choice of clips/videos. Well done.x

No one could get into a part like Montgomery Clift, he could convey the mood of the character he was playing silently, without words, as in his portrayal of Fr. Michael Logan in "I Confess" where he was being accused of murder, and was unable to defend himself because of the seal of confession. Because of the way he was able to convey the inner struggle that Fr Logan was going through no words were needed to further explain the scene.

Thanks for sharing this. Monty remains one of the very greatest acting stars of all time. It is a darn shame that the culture he lived in was so unkind, so hypocritical and so unChristian. If Monty were alive today instead of then, it might be easier for him to live freely. He might even have married the one he loved. Monty LOVED Ella Fitzgerald's records. His biographer wrote that Monty's friends said he listened to Ella almost exclusively. I think he would have found this lovely theme too sad.

Monty_Magic Sure it could have been worse, but it could have been better, too. He was a very talented actor that made some great movies (mostly in the early part of his career). He had to lead a double life which I'm sure ate away at him, had a near fatal car accident, and his life was destroyed by drugs and alcohol. His professional life saw great success but his personal life mostly sucked, at least in my opinion.

Thank you for this very moving video and tribute to such a wonderful actor. Montgomery Clift had a great gift, truly he was extraordinary in portraying emotion on the screen. Even in a western, "Red River", he is truly special; a role others would have taken a different tact, imagine for example, Robert Walker, or any other actor in the same role. Monty was George Steven's first choice for " Shane", the role ultimately going to Alan Ladd who was superb. Monty would have shined in Shane though as well. RIP Montgomery Clift.
@BillyPentangeles5 жыл бұрын
"Before Brando"? I think not. They were contemporaries. That being said, Clift was a prime example of the fragility of star power, before and after the accident that permanently changed him, inside & out. He became a completely different actor, obviously not by choice, his vulnerability eventually consuming him. One of the great Hollywood tragedies.

@ Marta, You obviously have no clue of what you're talking about. Monty's acting is unbelievable, he can nail a scene with his eyes alone. A real method actor who went to great lengths to capture the feel for a character. Watch him in "Judgement at Nuremberg," perhaps the best acting I have ever seen - he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for that film for only 11+ minutes on screen - the least amount ever for a nomination. He famously turned down the lead in "East of Eden," (James Dean)"Sunset Blvd, (William Holden) "High Noon" (Gary Cooper) and others because he didn't think he was right for the parts! He was selective and could have worked more than he did. HE was amazing on Broadway as well. Fine actor, and with all due respect, you have no taste.

Hello Monty fans, My name is Austin Savage and I am the Artistic Director of The Border Theatre, a not-for-profit theatre company that develops original work. Next month we will be debuting a play entitled "IDOL" which is a world premiere work about an encounter in 1957 between Monty and Marlon Brando before the shooting of "The Young Lions." The play explores the relationship between the two men as well as Monty's obsession with the woman he called "Bessie Mae."(Elizabeth Taylor) In an effort to fund the production as well as the ensuing tour we are offering incentives to all supporters including behind the scenes content, copies of the script, etc. to all interested. We'd like to invite all Monty fans to attend or support the production by visiting here: facebook.com/events/184549595375012/?active_tab=about Thank you so much for your time and your love for such a brilliant artist.
