Montgomery Clift

By David Lancaster

This new addition to the Outlines series takes an incisive look at the rise and tragic fall of one of Hollywood's greatest actors, whose work influenced such later screen idols as Brando and Dean. Gay, alcoholic, and beautiful, Montgomery Clift found it increasingly hard to fit into a Hollywood that could never really match up to his huge talent, too often beguiled by physical presence rather than the power of his acting. Following a horrific car accident during the shooting of the epic film Raintree Country, Clift emerged terribly scarred, both physically and emotionally. From then his life entered a tragic downward spiral. David Lancaster's book is the first to fully capture the grit and glamour of Clift's incredible an complex life.
