Film Description

Based on an original screenplay by Arthur Miller, this elegiac, beautifully shot modern Western gave his then wife Monroe arguably her greatest dramatic role. She plays a divorcee in Reno, Nevada who gets hooked up with a trio of disillusioned cowboys (Gable, Clift and Wallach) reduced to rounding up wild horses to sell for dog food.

Review by cj on 6th June 2000

Based on a highly personal, searingly honest original screenplay by Arthur Miller, this elegiac, beautifully shot modern western gave his then wife Marilyn Monroe arguably her greatest dramatic role. She plays a divorcee in Reno, Nevada who gets hooked up with a trio of disillusioned cowboys (Gable, Clift and Wallach) reduced to rounding up wild horses to sell for dog food. Stunning performances and the knowledge that this was the last film for both Gable and Monroe (with Clift dying not long after) give added poignancy and depth to this story of the corruption of the American dream.
