Alex North’s complete original soundtrack to the 1961 John Houston film The Misfits. It was written by Arthur Miller, and starred Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift, marking the final film appearance for both Gable (who died shortly after the movie was completed) and Monroe (who would die the following year). The plot centers around a recently divorced woman (Monroe) and her time spent with a cowboy (Gable) and his rodeo-riding friend (Clift) in the Western Nevada desert in the 1960s. Although it was a commercial failure at the time of its release, "The Misfits" received positive critical comments for its script and performances, and is highly regarded today. As a bonus, it also includes the music composed by Alex North for the 1951 film "A Streetcar Named Desire", based on Tennessee Williams’ play by the same name. Elia Kazan, who directed the Broadway stage production, also directed the black and white film, which starred Marlon Brando, Vivien Leigh, Kim Hunter, and Karl Malden
