Comphrensive. Well written with a good mix of fact and narrative. Worth reading in physical format for the photo plates. Lots of pictures in there that may not even be on the internet!
This biography's strength is its research into Clift's career. Very worthwhile read in that regard. Unfortunately, Clift's queerness is at best erased and at worst demonized by the author. Pair with the excellent documentary "Making Montgomery Clift" (2018) for a much more senstive and emphatic look at Clift's personal life.
