# The Misfits is released from Huston’s Nevada picture with a Miller script under Monroe’s name

Date: 1961

## The fact

The Misfits was released in 1961 as a black-and-white dramatic picture shot in Nevada with [Monroe](/people/marilyn-monroe) as Roslyn Taber. This Fact is that public film instrument, not the Miller divorce as a bedroom file and not a unique desert-location statute.

It is one event.

## Context

A late dramatic starring role is an education-and-labour offset after the blonde mill.

Marilyn Monroe’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

John Huston directed; Clark Gable and Montgomery Clift co-starred; Miller wrote. Production was famously strained.

Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers are the surviving public file.

## Evidence and sources

AFI Catalog and Britannica’s Misfits article independently date the 1961 release and the Huston–Miller–Monroe heading.

Official or archival record: AFI Catalog — Marilyn Monroe person record (https://catalog.afi.com/Person/129923-Marilyn-Monroe; American Film Institute).

## Significance

A distributed dramatic film is a public-repertoire path. Confidence high on the release, medium on production-strain magnitudes.

## What is established and what is not

Established: 1961 The Misfits starring release. Not established: that desert shooting uniquely caused later deaths as this instrument.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Marilyn Monroe.

They are not a public rating.

Marilyn Monroe did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. A portrait or conventional bust is not this mechanism. Allegation, reconstruction, and established occurrence stay distinct. Roslyn is not Sugar. Keep Huston distinct from Wilder and from Zanuck. Keep the carrier date of later English distinct from the received historical year stored in the date field. Do not read a later English edition as a recovered autograph of Marilyn Monroe.
