Softcover
1943 · (New York)
by RAPHAELSON, Samson
(New York): 20th Century Fox, 1943. Softcover. Fine. Continuity and Dialogue Script Taken from the Screen. Mimeographed sheets bradbound in blue stiff wrappers. About fine. Stamped "Received New York Legal Department Jul. 19 1943." Apparently prepared for the legal department to review, and dated just one month before the film was released. The Ernst Lubitsch-directed classic, highlighed by Raphaelson's witty script, featured Don Ameche as a would-be sinner not quite bad enough to get into Hell on his deathbed, and Gene Tierney as his long-suffering love. Both Lubitsch, cinematographer Edward Cronjager, and the film itself were nominated for Oscars. Very scarce. Ex-Carter Burden. (Inventory #: 81394)
