Monty

About This Movie

So, Monty (2016) is this intriguing exploration of Montgomery Clift’s last hours, where he kinda drifts through memories of women who shaped his life, like Marilyn Monroe and Liz Taylor. The atmosphere is this heavy, reflective tone, almost somber but oddly beautiful. You feel the weight of his past relationships, and there's also this stark juxtaposition with John Huston, who, in a way, embodies his downfall. The pacing is slow, but it suits the reflective nature of the film. The performances are understated but carry a lot of emotional depth, making it feel personal. It’s distinct in how it dives deep into Clift’s psyche rather than just a biopic surface level.
