Montgomery Clift (1983)
A documentary incorporating footage of Montgomery Clift’s most memorable films; interviews with family and friends, and rare archival material stretching back to his childhood. What develops is the story of an intense young boy who yearned for stardom, achieved notable success in such classic films as From Here to Eternity and I Confess, only to be ruined by alcohol addiction and his inability to face his own fears and homosexual desires. Montgomery Clift, as this film portrays him, may not have been a happy man but he never compromised his acting talents for Hollywood.

Not even bad in a good way
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
