Clark Cable's
Final Performance
HOLLYWOOD !W — The movie
colony previewed Clark Gable’s
■ final film last night and perhaps
saw his best performance since
“Gone With the Wind” in 1939.
A houseful of Hollywood names
| packed the Screen Directors Guild
; Theater to see “The Misfits”
' starring Gable, Marilyn Monroe,
Montgomery Clift and Eli Wal
jlach.
Gable shot the final scenes of
the movie last Nov. 4, suffered
a heart attack two days later
and died 10 days after that.
Sadly, the movie gave a rugged
hint of how his heart could have
I been taxed. In one scene, filmed
| in 120-degree heat on a Nevada
j desert dry lake bed, Gable fought
! furiously with a wild horse.
It would have been an ordeal
even for a young stunt man, but
Gable, 59, insisted on doing most
of his own roping and rugged
j horse handling.
It is mostly Gable’s show.
His role is a character he and
all his fans loved best—a lusty,
virile cowpoke who hunted wild
horses by day and wild women
by night.
Some of his love scenes with
Marilyn are torrid reminders of
the old Gable and Jean Harlow
movies of the ’30s.
But there is one pathetic drunk
i scene which gave Gable a rare
opportunity to prove that he was
a far better actor than even his
most loyal fans realized.
His show business epitaph can
read: “He gave them an 11 o’clock
finish.”
