1969141375New York: Two Faces / New Yorker Films 1969. Vintage poster for the 1969 film an experimental mix of documentary and fiction. Poster designed by Robert Frank. <br /> <br /> Director Robert Frank's first feature film in which he follows poet Peter Orlvosky and his mentally ill brother Julius as they move through the late 1960s Beat scene while Peter tries to care for his mostly catatonic brother. When Julius wanders off he is replaced in the film by actor Joseph Chaikin. The film examines the boundaries of reality and sanity and features the screenwriting debut of Sam Shepard and the first feature film appearance of Christopher Walken. <br /> <br /> The film was restored and released by Steidl in 2007 along with a book publication outlining the film. From the Steidl book: "Frank's feature debut was first screened in 1968 at the Venice Film Festival. Everything which had defined Frank's art up to that point turns up in this film - the look at America 'from the outside' the poetic libertinage of the Beats the marginal in a central role. It celebrates the return of the poetic essay as assemblage the affirmation of the underground as a wild cinematic analysis in the form of a collage and skillfully weaves together opposites plays counterfeits against the authentic pornography against poetry acting against being Beat cynicism against hippie romanticism monochrome against colored. The story contains bizarre twists and turns and appears to be a rather artless-film-within-a-film being shown at a rundown movie theater."<br /> <br /> 26.75 x 20.75 inches. Near Fine.

1970146086New York: Pressman Williams 1970. Draft script for the 1973 film. Copy belonging to cinematographer Gregory Sandor with his name in holograph pencil on the verso of the title page and holograph pencil annotations throughout.<br/><br/>Danielle is a beautiful model separated from her conjoined twin Dominique. When her neighbor an aspiring journalist suspects Danielle of a brutal murder the horror of Danielle's disturbing past begins to surface. Director Brian De Palma based his original story on a Life magazine article about conjoined twins in the Soviet Republic who had been successfully separated but were experiencing psychological problems as a result of the operation. <br/><br/>With its use of visually dense point-of-view and split-screen camera techniques "Sisters" is one of De Palma's earliest forays into erotic voyeurism as a conduit for psychological horror paving the way for a string of idiosyncratic psychosexual projects in the ensuing years such as "Obsession" 1976 "Dressed to Kill" 1980 "Blow Out" 1981 and "Body Double" 1984 among others. Given its focus on the anxiety of the gaze "Sisters" can also be read as an homage to Alfred Hitchcock-openly referencing "Rope" 1948 "Rear Window" 1954 and "Psycho" 1960-and indeed the film was even scored by Bernard Hermann a frequent musical collaborator for Hitchcock's films.<br/><br/>Set and shot on location in New York. <br/><br/>Maroon titled wrappers.

Rare and important draft shooting script for the Hollywood film The Mysterious Island. Loosely adapted from Jules Verne's science fiction novel L’ile mystérieuse this MGM production - a part-talkie - was filmed in two-strip Technicolour and had a checkered production history: shooting had commenced in 1926 but the film was not released until 5 October 1929. Lucien Hubbard 1888-1971 was officialy credited as the writer of the screenplay and as director even though scenes shot earlier by Maurice Tourneur and Benjamin Christensen - both removed from the project by Irving Thalberg because of their painstaking approach to filmmaking - were used in the final version. Lucien Hubbard is today perhaps best-known as the producer of the silent film Wings 1927 for which he won an Academy Award. Until recently a single ten-minute reel with a colour sequence in the UCLA Film and Television Archive was thought to be the only portion of The Mysterious Island that had survived in Technicolour although complete black-and-white prints had always been known. Then in 2013 experts from George Eastman House discovered that a colour print had been preserved in the Czech National Film Archive; the restored colour print of the film was screened at the 33rd Pordenone Silent Film Festival in October 2014. The cast of The Mysterious Island included Lionel Barrymore Count Andre Dakkar Jane Daly Jacqueline Gadsden Sonia Lloyd Hughes Nikolai Montagu Love Falon Harry Gribbon Mikhail Snitz Edwards Anton Gibson Gowland Dmitry Dolores Brinkman Teresa and Major Roup an underwater creature. Art direction was by Cedric Gibbons with technical effects by James Basevi Louis H. Tolhurst and Irving R. Ries. Jacqueline Gadsden 1900-1986 was an American film actress during the silent era. Her most famous role was in It 1927 in which she starred alongsde Clara Bow. In 1924 she had married William Harry Daly and in fact she made two other films in the same year that The Mysterious Island was released 1929 - one for Columbia and another for MGM - in which she was billed under the name Jane Daly. The Mysterious Island was her last film prior to retirement from motion pictures.  unknown
1945003033Los Angeles: Universal Studios 1945. Doyle A. Conan Leonard Lee screenwriter. PURSUIT TO ALGIERS here bearing the initial title "The Fugitive." Los Angeles: Universal Studios 1945. Dated July 26th 1945 Leonard Lee's complete brad-bound studio mimeographed draft script production number #7309 stamped on the cover consists of 113pp of typescript bearing numerous penciled revisions emendations and additions - along with another 20pp of massively hand-corrected typescript which clearly had contained so many penciled changes that the pages had to be retyped. These remarkably annotated pages have been appended to the rear of the screenplay creating a 133pp comprehensive look at the evolution of the script. Given the fragile nature of WW2-era scripts this example is in excellent original condition very good indeed the pages are a little soft with some very light edge-wear and tears. As fully marked up as any script in our nearly complete Universal Studio archive. PURSUIT TO ALGIERS set almost entirely on a passenger ship required elaborate sets and thus became the series's most expensive production; it premiered at the Rialto Theatre in New York on October 26th 1945. The twelve Sherlock Holmes films produced by Universal Pictures during the years 1942-1946 are legend; they are surely the best known screen-adapted adventures of English Literature's most iconic character and Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce are still cherished despite our current superb 21st century film and TV adaptations as the definitive Holmes and Watson. A treasure for the fan of the Universal Sherlock Series. Please see our other scripts from the same archive. Signed. Original Wraps. Very Good. Script. Universal Studios Paperback books
