En la portada aparece Elizabeth Taylor a quien se le adjudica numerosos romances aunque no aparece Montgomery Clift. En el interior sí hay un reportaje suyo encabezado por la frase "Romantic Mysterious" con la foto característica en albornoz y seguido del titular "Clift, the great lover. Who's does the love". Con tres fotogramas besando a Olivia de Havilland (The Heiress, 1949), a Liz y a Shelley Winters (A place in the sun, 1951). Y una imagen suya que es la que tomó Patricia Bosworth para su biografía.

(Englist text)

Paramount, 1951 Release Dialogue Script for the 1951 film noir, "A Place in the Sun," directed by George Stevens, based on the 1925 novel by Theodore Dreiser, starring Montgomery Clift, Elizabeth Taylor, Shelley Winters, and Raymond Burr. Title page dated February 21, 1951, noting 13 reels, and with a purple stamp reading, "PARAMOUNT FILM LIBRARY" at the top right corner. The film title and a reference number of 10054 are noted in black holograph marker along the spine. Bound at the side with two heavy staples, as was the practice at Paramount during this period. Title page is worn at the left edge, and rather than incurring further wear, has been placed in a separate plastic sleeve. In a custom quarter-leather clamshell box.
Su carrera comprende 17 títulos entre 1948 y 1966. Trabajó con los grandes directores (Hawks, Hitchcock, Stevens, Zinnemann, Kazan, Huston, Wyler) y las grandes estrellas (Lancaster, Marilyn Monroe, Katherine Hepburn, Brando, Wayne, Elizabeth Taylor especialmente) de entonces.

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
