Montgomery Clift died at the age of 45 of heart problems brought on by his drug and alcohol addictions. The eleven films in which they appeared together include The Comancheros (1961), The Green Berets (1968), The Undefeated (1969) and Chisum (1970). He turned down the starring roles in East of Eden and Sunset Blvd..

A lifelong friend of Wayne, they first acted together in Angel and the Badman (1947). He needed reconstructive surgery on his face, but returned to acting and to stardom. Cabot continued acting into the early 1970s, with many of his later performances being supporting roles in John Wayne films. In 1956, while filming Raintree County, he smashed his car into a tree, and only quick thinking by co-star Elizabeth Taylor, who pulled two teeth out of his throat to keep him from choking, saved his life. Among his other films are Fury (1936), The Last of the Mohicans (1936), Dodge City (1939), Susan and God (1940), The Quiet American (1965) and Cat Ballou (1966). But the public never knew until after his death that he was a bisexual, and his guilt over this led to his continuing alcoholism and drug use. His most widely seen performance was in King Kong (1933) opposite Fay Wray. Amazingly, Clift was nominated for a best supporting actor Oscar for Judgement At Nuremberg in a role that only took up seven minutes of screen time.

He had a highly successful film career, performing in many Oscar-nominated roles and becoming a matinee idol for his good looks. Bruce Cabot (April 20, 1904 - May 3, 1972) was an American film actor.
