1964131051Beverly Hills CA: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer MGM 1964. Draft script for the 1965 film based on the 1948 novel by Evelyn Waugh legendarily co-written by Terry Southern and Christopher Isherwood.

Laid in is a corner stapled three page Staff and Crew list with two name additions in holograph red ink on the second page. <br/><br/>Included is a vintage studio still photograph from the film. <br/><br/>An early draft issued nearly two years prior to the film's October 1965 release with substantial differences from the finished film. <br/><br/>The sister film to "Dr. Strangelove" and in the eyes of many just as much a masterpiece of exquisitely wrought black humor.
