John Huston's (The Maltese Falcon) western romance starring Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable and Montgomery Clift, with a script by legend Arthur Miller (Death of a Salesman). A divorcée (Monroe) falls for an over-the-hill cowboy (Gable) who is struggling to maintain his romantically independent lifestyle in early-sixties Nevada.
