Average Customer Rating: 4.5 (4 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: marilyn most natural
Comment: the way marilyn looks during this film and in this book is the way I want to remember her....I can't get her long, straight flowing hair, girl-next-door face, ski-slope nose, and fragile, vulnerable eyes out of my mind...it's not the comedian, dancer, colorized made up look she so often portrays that's everlasting; what is permanent and pertinent to this film is the haunted vision of such a beauty contrasted against untamed emotions and the naked wilderness.

Summary: I was an "extra" in the rodeo scenes
Comment: A thoughtful, long-time, and loving friend just gave me this book as a birthday gift.
When I was almost six years old, my family was visiting Virginia City, Nevada. My mother overheard about the filming of "The Misfits" rodeo scenes in Dayton, Nevada, so we drove down for the afternoon, and re-visited Dayton on subsequent shooting days.
During the filming, we were sitting in the rodeo arena bleachers, close to where 'Roslyn' (Marilyn Monroe) runs down after 'Perce' (Montgomery Clift) is thrown from the bull. My mother still does a creditable imitation of Roslyn's cry of "Oh, Perce! Perce!" for our amusement.
This book brought back many special memories of those experiences. I feel as if I'm a part of this book, since they had such an impact on those early years of my life.
All in all, this is one of the best gifts I've ever received. Any film buff would also appreciate this book, to own, share, or to give--it's a gem.

Summary: The Story of The Misfits
Comment: I was so excited when I heard a book of The Misfits was coming out, my favorite movie with my favorite stars. They layout is beautiful and the pictures are great. I only gave the book 3 stars because it didn't tell me anything 'new' about The Misfits. Just another book with the same things that have been written over and over agin. But for any die hard Marilyn, Monty, Gable, Huston, or Miller fans worth reading.
