- The Misfits. Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, Montgomery Clift. 46 votes. While filing for a divorce, beautiful ex-stripper Roslyn Taber (Marilyn Monroe) ends up meeting aging cowboy-turned-gambler Gay Langland (Clark Gable) and former World War II aviator Guido Racanelli (Eli Wallach).
- The Search (1948) Director: Fred Zinnemann. Filmed in the remnants of postwar Germany, The Search’s quasi-documentary feel is only heightened by the casually naturalistic presence of Clift, making an Oscar-nominated debut as a cocksure military engineer determined to locate the mother of a young Czech refugee (Oscar-winning child actor Ivan Jandl) lost in Berlin.
- Red River (1948) Director: Howard Hawks. One of the western genre’s immutable classics gifted Clift a star-making role in Matt Garth, the adoptive son of – and increasingly disapproving second-in-command to – John Wayne’s authoritarian cattle driver Tom Dunson.
- The Heiress (1949) Director: William Wyler. Clift’s beauty was never as crucial to the story – and to his character, in this case an entitled young popinjay all too aware of his superficial charms – as it is in William Wyler’s caustic costume drama The Heiress.
- A Place in the Sun (1951) Director: George Stevens. There’s a severe loneliness to so many of Clift’s characters, but George Eastman, A Place in the Sun’s naive would-be social climber, might just be the loneliest of them all.
