The following seven lots are from the film The Misfits, 1961, directed by John Huston, written by Arthur Miller and starring Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, Montgomery Clift, Eli Wallach, Thelma Ritter, James Barton, Estelle Winwood and Kevin McCarthy. This was the last completed film that Marilyn Monroe was to star in before her untimely death. Magnum photographers had exclusive rights to photograph on the set of this film and this instance marked a rare occurance when so many members were working together.
