Learning about Montgomery Clift …

With the news that HBO has gotten behind a biopic on Montgomery Clift starring Matt Bomer, it seems like the perfect time to remind people about this Hollywood icon.

A friend of mine didn’t know who he was (she’s British) so I recommended she watch A Place in the Sun which I think is his greatest role.

His leading lady in the film was Elizabeth Taylor who became his lifelong friend. In fact, she said he’s the best friend she ever had.

Miss Taylor did this tribute to Clift for Turner Classic Movies channel before she died that I think will help you to get to know him better.
