The Vintage Film Star Thread

[Gutpunchboy]

In case anyone is unaware, the movie was based on a play by the same name about a woman and her two lovers who live together since she can't decide between the two. While both men love the same woman, it's also suggested that the men have an attraction toward each other but, in the movie, that plot suggestion is totally removed with the men only having a platonic friendship.

Apparently Mr Coward was a little more direct in the stage play (probably the closest he could get to what he really wanted to show w/o the vice shutting it down lol) I've never seen a production thou.

I saw a Broadway revival in 1984 with Frank Langella, Raul Julia and Jill Clayburgh, but sadly, don't remember a word.

Henry Cavill looks like him in these pictures

They're both incredibly handsome.
Not that it necessarily implies anything, or makes one more attractive than the other, but.....
Henry Cavill is 6'1"......Clint was 6'6"

Frank Worth. James Dean Flipping Elizabeth Taylor (on the set of Giant), 1955

One I've never seen before; on the set of Rebel with Jim B who played his father. Odd, he looks a different here. He looks beefier. God the guy just exuded SEX. And now he's frozen that way.
*I often wonder what would have become of him, would he have remained an A-lister like Newman stayed gorgeous and just kept working, would he have become an eccentric like Brando who changed completely. (or would he have walked away from it all and just raced cars the rest of his life?) We'll never know.

I swear I just saw him laying down with a woody tenting his dress slacks in House of Bamboo. Such poetry!

Never noticed that, but dang you’re right! It’s too bad he never had the opportunity to play an openly gay role. He was such an incredible actor, it would have been fascinating to see how he would portray that aspect of himself in that era.

Broadway actor Corey Cott looks even more like him, especially when smiling.

Wasn't Kerr Smith trying to get a Montgomery Clift biopic off the ground back in the aughts? I'm torn between being sad we never got to see it and thrilled that ungrateful, insecure tool's dream project never got off the ground and made him more than a footnote in the WB Network's history.

Matt Bomer is supposed to be doing a Montgomery Clift biopic for HBO. Whether it ever gets made.....
