The Misfits is showing at the Palm Theatre in San Luis Obispo, California – America’s first solar-powered cinema – on Friday, April 3, at 7:15 pm.
“While filing for divorce in Reno, Roslyn Taber (Marilyn Monroe) finds herself drawn into the orbit of an aging cowboy gambler (Clark Gable) and a former WWII pilot (Eli Wallach), forming an unlikely bond that leads them out into the Nevada desert. Joined by a hardened ex-rodeo rider (Montgomery Clift), the group attempts to make a living capturing wild horses, even as their fragile connections begin to fracture. Serving as the first pick in Michael’s ‘Flickerhead Friday Night Features: John Huston’ series, the film stands as a poignant, end-of-an-era portrait of drifting lives and fading American myths.”
