We think of Charlton Heston as the Moses Of The Movies, but his peer Burt Lancaster played Moses as well in the CBS Television mini series, MOSES THE LAWGIVER, done in 1974. This was a prestigious effort on the part of CBS. Joseph E. Levine released a two hour theatrical version as MOSES in 1976. Blessed with a competent cast, the movie is no THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, but the story relies on character development and biblical detail to move it along. The mini series version, which one might be able to catch on a cable movie channel, is the better version to watch as the theatrical release is a bit truncated. Also starrring Anthony Quayle, Ingrid Thulin and Irene Papas. Directed by Gianfranco De Bosio. This poster is folded a bit irregularly, so we have graded it as fine plus. Otherwise in very fine shape.

How many times has this story been told? Many. But never with more panache and fire than in this version with Burton as Henry VIII and a young, passionate Bujold as Anne Boleyn. Mounted on a grand scale with a wonderful score by Georges Delerue and additional period music by the famed New York Pro Musica, this movie is one of the best of the sixties’ period films.

Original Cinerama Releasing Corporation 23-page Program (8.5×11) for the Michael Cacoyannis adaptation of the ancient Greek play by Euripides, THE TROJAN WOMEN (1971) starring Katharine Hepburn, Vanessa Redgrave, Genevieve Bujold, and Irene Papas. Euripides was the most popular poet of the ancient world, and this play is a stunning indictment of imperialist aggression at the time that Athens was fighting Sparta in the Peloponnesian War (431—404 B.C.). The play captures the extreme pain and anguish of the women of Troy after the city has fallen to the Greeks. The women weep over their lost city, their dead husbands and sons, and their lost honor as they are led away as Greek slaves. This is certainly one of the most powerful anti-war films ever made at the time of the war in Vietman. This rare program has 32 photos, a director’s note, biographies of all major actors, actresses, and director Cacoyannis. This original program is in good condition.

The film is character driven encompassing nuance and subtlety with crisp dialogue and sweeping landscapes of beautiful Greece. The film won the Oscar for Best Special Effects and was nominated for six other categories, including Best Director and Best Picture. This original insert poster is in very fine condition and has been signed by both Gregory Peck and Irene Papas.
