While filing for a divorce, beautiful ex-stripper Roslyn Taber ends up meeting aging cowboy-turned-gambler Gay Langland and former World War II aviator Guido Racanelli. The two men instantly become infatuated with Roslyn and, on a whim, the three decide to move into Guido's half-finished desert home together. When grizzled ex-rodeo rider Perce Howland arrives, the unlikely foursome strike up a business capturing wild horses.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'The Misfits' is a Western Drama centered on relationship dynamics and the capture of wild horses in the Nevada desert. There is no indication that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution have any connection to the Christmas season."
