I loved so much about this book. I didn’t know nearly so much about just how far the relationship/friendship between Liz and Monty went. For all the gossip about how flawed of a person Elizabeth Taylor was, she shone through in the myriad of ways she fought for her friends, particularly for Montgomery Clift. Clift had an immediately recognisable charm in his movie roles, though it was attached to a certain indescribable mystique. This book expresses just how hard it was to pin down his personal character, in all of it’s stories about his escapades, struggles, and quirky behaviors. I would’ve given it five stars, but there were times that I felt the book robbed itself of some dignity by including, for example, multiple comments about Monty’s genitals. I could’ve lived without knowing, in vulgar detail, that a beloved actor of mine had an apparently small and ugly genitalia. Barring this, the book was an excellent listen, with an engaging narrator, that I recommend to any fans of classic Hollywood.
