Some general remarks

Clark Gable

Excentric the is the last film of Clark Gable, born the 1901, deceased the November 16th 1960, that is to say a few days after the end of turning (November 4th). It was 59 years old. The relations with Marilyn Monroe were tended on the plate, so much so that certain testimonys bring back an unfortunately premonitory reflection of Gable about its partner: “ She almost killed me ”.

Marilyn Monroe

In its 29e and last film (supplemented) where it is 2nd with the generic behind Clark Gable and in front of Montgomery Clift, Marilyn Monroe interprets a role especially written for it by his/her husband Arthur Miller, that of a woman who has just divorced, which is lost, which does not know where to go and that to make, and who is very disappointed men. The character of Roslyn conceived by Miller is inspired with many regards Marilyn. Its sequences and scenes:
  • At the house of Isabelle:
    Marilyn appears at the 3rd minute with the window behind a rideau.
    En stripped, in its room preparing, repeating its arguments for the divorce.
  • In front of the court, out of black dress. Then on a bridge, hesitating to throw its ring of marriage in water.
  • In a bar with Thelma Ritter, meeting Clark Gable and Eli Wallach. Then in the car.
  • At the country house:
    Pendant a small impromptu festival. Then in the car of Gable. Then return to the country house for one night of amour.
    Le following day to the breakfast.
    Les following days: with horse, with the beach in bikini, in the jardin.
    Accrochées in a cupboard, Wallach sees photographs of scene of Marilyn because its character was model or artist.
  • Meeting with Montgomery Clift at a station gasoline, then in the car.
  • In a bar, where she plays with a racket and a ball to win bets; a primary education type the key.
  • With the rodeo, panicking.
  • Return to the bar; she dances in particular with " Mont".
  • Return to the house of Wallach.
  • In the long final sequence in the wild plain, to go to capture the mustangs, where it will hesitate some time between its deep convictions and its love for Gable.

Marilyn was made responsible for the rapid falls of health of Gable (then of its sudden dead a few days later) because of its work method (ceaseless delays, taken scenes multiplied with the envi…), in particular by the last woman of Gable, Kay (of pregnant at that time), which threw it in a new phase of depression. It did not go to attend the funerary ceremony of the star late. Kay however invited it to the baptism of the son that Clark never knows, which was a manner of showing that Marilyn was not any responsible as for the death for her husband. The fact was then mentioned that Gable had made a point of playing all its scenes in film, including the cascades, which much requested it and tired. Cf Clark Gable above also.
