The Misfits (1961)

 

The first movie in our new series is one left over from the Clark Gable Series, the Misfits, starring Clark Gable and directed by John Huston.

 

Gable felt that it was a compliment that he was offered the part of Gay (the male lead) since he considered it an “intellectual” script, a western but not a western and unlike other parts he had played.

 

Arthur Miller who wrote the screen play, was not at first taken with the idea of casting Gable, but after he met and talked with Gable, he decided that Gable was Gay, or Gay was Gable.

WThese are our two formerly feral kittens, Nicki D. and Cool Mustard.  We started feeding their mother and then adopted her and her four kittens.  They are a loving family.  Cats usually don't get raised with others in their families and so these guys make a unique group.  They are crazy about each other - play together, sleep together and as you can see from this photo, pal around together.  Be kind.  Please be kind to ferals.  They are full of love and full of fun.
