Description: Montgomery Clift & Paul Douglas in " The Big Lift " 20th Century 1950 14 x 11 Lobby card is in very good condition!!!!... very minor wear around the edges (see photos)....... By the end of the 1940s, Montgomery Clift, then just reaching 30 and with only three feature films under his belt, was the hottest young actor in Hollywood. The impact he made in Red River (1948) and The Heiress (1949) had producers clamoring for him to star in their next productions, and he was first in line for the lead in Billy Wilder's gothic melodrama about the movie world, Sunset Boulevard (1950). While he mulled over that offer, he took the lead in the postwar drama The Big Lift (1950) which focused on a significant event in history, the Berlin Airlift, considered to be the first "battle" of the Cold War and one of the largest mobilizations for humanitarian relief up to that time. Clift's schedule proved to be the least of the problems he posed for The Big Lift. Coming from the New York stage and preferring his life there to the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, the young actor had already made enemies in the film industry over what many considered his smug attitude and difficult on-set behavior. Co-star Paul Douglas arrived on location already prepared for problems; Clift's Red River co-star John Wayne had warned him "this kid's a little sh*t." During filming of their first scenes together, Douglas noticed how Clift would lean into a two shot so far that he almost squeezed him out of the frame. Finally, the older actor stomped hard on Clift's foot, causing him to cry out in pain. "You do that again and I'll break your f***ing foot," Douglas threatened. Clift never did it again, but the two didn't speak for the remainder of the production.
