Good Morning, World

.
Can anybody tell me what Montgomery Clift is wearing in that picture - Pants? Shorts? Underwear? I can't tell! Anyway director Fred Zinnemann made a ton of classic movies - High Noon, The Day of the Jackal, Oklahoma! - but when I hear his name I immediately think of Monty and From Here Til Eternity, and that's not so bad an honorific, right? So here on what would have been his birthday, we look at Monty. When I'm dead feel free to do the same thing on my birthday. (When not weeping and throwing yourself upon my tomb, naturally.)

Those look like briefs to me. Notice how the top of his thigh is a little lighter than whatever is covering his ass.

His bio says he was a rough brutal top, enjoyed being rough while topping boys

Is he wearing a tank top with the dark underwear briefs? Speedo
