Movie Review: Sad note to go out on
Summary: 2 Stars
Oh, how I wanted to love this movie. It was the last movie for both Gable and Monroe, it was set in the beautiful southwest (Reno to be exact), and it was to be a movie about free-spirits finding each other. The movie started out great, with a great opening scene with Thelma Ritter. Unfortunately, that is the last high point of the movie. In addition to accepting the unbelievable romance between sixty year old Gable and 35-year-old Marilyn, we were supposed to feel something for these characters. Not an easy thing to ask of the viewer. Wallach, Clift and Gable played dispicable, drunken losers, and Marilyn was a woman bereft of any capability to recognize it. These were all people that I wouldn't even bother with if I met them on the street. Why am I supposed to care about them?
So sad that Gable and Monroe went out on this note. The only value in seeing this movie is purely historical.
