The Misfits (1961)

"A robust, high-voltage adventure drama, vibrating with explosively emotional histrionics, conceived and executed with a refreshing disdain for superficial technical and photographic slickness in favor of an uncommonly honest and direct cinematic approach."

"A problematic but provocative piece of work."

"Characters and theme do not congeal. There is a lot of absorbing detail in it, but it doesn't add up to a point."

"The faces of Gable, Clift and Monroe together in closeup have a Mount Rushmore look to them."

"A gripping and messy ode to the collision of genres, time periods, and personalities."
