I’ve seen ‘The Misfits’ several times. I enjoyed it, I guess because of the big name stars (Marilyn, Clark, Montgomery Cliff, etc- all sad, troubled in real life), but it made me sad because of the horses being rounded up for dog food, and it was sad seeing Marilyn. I loved her, but she was so troubled and met such a terrible end.
I still believe JFK, RK killed her. She was having an affair with both and threatened to expose it.
Google MM murder-JFK to get details.

One can feel sorry for Gable never living to see his son, but he DID have a daughter, Judy Lewis, born out of wedlock to Loretta Young.(one of the great beauties of the Classic era- and underrated)
After a few initial visits when she was a baby and once as a toddler, he ignored her for the rest of his life. She only found out who her father was when, as an adult, a family friend let it spill.
But back in those days such a scandal as an out of wedlock baby could ruin careers. So...who knows.

I’ve seen GWTW at least a dozen times. Great movie.
Vivian Leigh was one of the greatest beauties of the Classic era.

It was just the way it was back then.
I’m wondering how long it will take the Libs and Black Lives Matter idiots to try to have it banned- as they are doing to the Confederate flag and statues of prominent Southern figures like generals, etc.
Idiots. Bad as some of it was, it is American history.

I looked up photos of John Clark, didn’t see much of a resemblance to Clark, Sr.
John Clark (a minor actor) now has a son named..wait for it-
Clark Gable 111.
All of Clark’s descendants are handsome men, but none really favor Clark.
Clark wasn’t really that handsome, he just had that special, unidentifiable something that makes a star- someone you love to watch, like Marilyn.

Hey..just got curious and looked up your bio. You’re a fellow Texan!
Look up my bio or ‘about’ page for all the stuff I have on there about Texas. Somebody told me the other day, “God, you must love Texas” LOL
I love pets, too. We’re cat people. Be sure to scroll down to the bottom and see our herd of cats.
