Cine Revue.- mayo 1953

La revista fancesa en su número de 1 de mayo de 1953, ofrecía un reportaje sobre I Confess. Cabe destacar lo tardío que se habla de la producción, casi un año después y cuando Montgomery Clift ya había rodado From here to eternity (que se estrenaría en agosto de ese mismo año).

Por otra parte, señalar que si bien en España se respetó el título original, en Francia se llamó La loi du silence (ques es como en España se llamó On the waterfront, de Marlon Brando).

Modern Screen.- Oct 1949

Portada de la revista Modern Screen de octubre de 1949 con Shirley Temple en la portada donde también aparece un reportaje sobre Montgomery Clift titulado "Mi propia historia".

Datos de la revista:

(English text)

This is one of the prettiest magazine covers of former child star, Shirley Temple when she graced this issue of MODERN SCREEN Magazine from October, 1949.

This magazine is missing about 10 of it's 100 pages. It does feature a great color pinup of I love Lucy star Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz, long before I love Lucy. THere is also a color pin-up of Clark Gable. It's a nice collectible for the Shirley Temple fan. Low opening bid for a 60 year old magazine because of missing pages. His "own story" with photographs from his films!

Monty was born just after his twin sister Roberta and eighteen months after his brother Brooks Clift. Their father William made a lot of money in banking but was quite poor during the depression. Their mother Ethel "Sunny" was born out of wedlock and spent much of her life and the family fortune finding her illustrious southern lineage and raising her children as aristocrats. At 13, Monty appeared on Broadway ("Fly Away Home"), and chose to remain in the New York theater for over ten years before finally succumbing to Hollywood. He gained excellent theatrical notices and soon piqued the interests of numerous lovelorn actresses; their advances met with awkward conflict. While working in New York in the early 1940s, he met wealthy former Broadway star Libby Holman. She developed an intense decade-plus obsession over the young actor, even financing an experimental play, "Mexican Mural" for him. It was ironic his relationship with the bisexual middle-aged Holman would be the principal (and likely the last) heterosexual relationship of his life and only cause him further anguish over his sexuality. She would wield considerable influence over the early part of his film career, advising him in decisions to decline lead roles in Sunset Blvd. (1950), (originally written specifically for him; the story perhaps hitting a little too close to home) and High Noon (1952). His long apprenticeship on stage made him a thoroughly accomplished actor, notable for the intensity with which he researched and approached his roles. By the early 1950's he was exclusively homosexual, though he continued to maintain a number of close friendships with theater women (heavily promoted by studio publicists). His film debut was Red River (1948) with John Wayne quickly followed by his early personal success The Search (1948) (Oscar nominations for this, A Place in the Sun (1951), From Here to Eternity (1953) and Judgment at Nuremberg (1961)). By 1950, he was troubled with allergies and colitis (the army had rejected him in WWII for chronic diarrhea) and, along with pill problems, he was alcoholic. He spent a great deal of time and money on psychiatry. In 1956, during filming of Raintree County (1957), he ran his Chevrolet into a tree after leaving a party at Elizabeth Taylor's; it was she who saved him from choking by pulling out two teeth lodged in his throat. His smashed face was rebuilt, he reconciled with his estranged father, but he continued bedeviled by dependency on drugs and his unrelenting guilt over his homosexuality. With his Hollywood career in an irreversible slide (despite giving an occasional riveting performance, such as in Stanley Kramer's Judgment at Nuremberg (1961)), Monty returned to New York and tried to slowly develop a somewhat more sensible lifestyle in his brownstone. He was set to play in Taylor's Reflections in a Golden Eye (1967), when his companion Lorenzo James found him lying nude on top of his bed, dead from what the autopsy called "occlusive coronary artery disease." His death was called the longest suicide in history by famed acting teacher, Robert Lewis.

Movie Life.- reportajes (1949)



1 y 2: marzo 1949 - 3: junio 1949

en el primer reportaje se ven fotos muy, pero que muy poco conocidas de Montgomery Clift. el reportaje se titula "El señor en su apartamento amueblado" pero bien podría titularse "Ún día en la vida de la estrella", pues vemos a un jovencísimo y sonriente Monty en sus inicios hollywoodienses (llevaba estrenadas en 1948 Red River y The Search - The heiress en octubre de ese año- y estaba en conversaciones para rodar place in the sun). aparece recién levantado leyendo la prensa, preparándose el desayuno, afeitándose y posando con su coche.

la tercera foto, aunque sale publicada meses después creo que es del mismo reportaje. por la chaqueta y la camiseta blanca y lo que parece que es la portezuela del coche.

¿no os parece que estaba very cute?!!.

Movie Life.- jun 1952

June 1952 issue of Movie Life magazine with Doris Day on the front cover. There is 1 page missing, page 9/10 which is not listed in the Table of Contents but I believe it's candid shots of the stars. Featured in this issue (in order):

* Gene Autry "Big Deal. When Autry and his troupe of 30 go on tour, it gets to be a real production" 4 pgs.
* Dale Robertson "Sees New York" is 4 pgs.
* Fernando Lamas "His Life" (in pics from his movies and private life) is 6 pgs.
* Montgomery Clift and Richard Widmark are part of "Hollywood In New York" with both Clift & Widmark performing at Theatre Guild on the Air Show (text on the right page is about Clift) w/2 pics of him and 3 of Widmark
* "Travel Tipsters" include Doris Day, Diana Lynn, Virginia Mayo, Jane Russell, Marilyn Monroe and Betty Hutton 2pgs.

Parece ser que Montgomery Clift coincidió con Richard Widmark o colaboró con él antes de rodar Vencedores y Vencidos (Judgment at Nuremberg). Desconocía ese dato y esa referencia al Teatro Guild en el Arir Show.

The Right Profile
Lyric
Say, where did I see this guy?
In red river?
Or a place in the sun?
Maybe the misfits?
Or from here to eternity?

Everybody say, is he all right?
And everybody say, whats he like?
Everybody say, he sure looks funny.
Thats...Montgomery Clift, honey!

New York, New York, New York, 42nd street
Hustlers rustle and pimps pimp the beat
Monty Clift is recognized at dawn
He aint got no shoes and his clothes are torn

I see a car smashed at night
Cut the applause and dim the light
Monty's face is broken on a wheel
Is he alive? can he still feel?

Everybody say, is he all right?
And everybody say, whats he like?
Everybody say, he sure looks funny.
Thats...Montgomery Clift, honey!

Nembutol numbs it all
But I prefer alcohol

He said go out and get me my old movie stills
Go out and get me another roll of pills
There I go again shaking, but I aint got the chills
