SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMER (1959) 2187
Original Columbia Pictures One Sheet Poster (27×41). Good.
More Details
This is an original Columbia Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Joseph L. Mankiewicz dramatic classic, SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMER (1959)—starring Elizabeth Taylor, Katharine Hepburn, and Montgomery Clift. Based on a play by the very successful Broadway icon Tennessee Williams, the screenplay was skillfully adapted by Gore Vidal. Set in New Orleans in 1937, Hepburn plays a lady of means who is mourning the loss of her son. She wants to donate a million dollars to the hospital where Clift is a doctor if he will perform a lobotomy on her niece Taylor. The young woman has been traumatized by what she witnessed last summer. Tennessee Williams never forgave his own mother for letting his sister Rose have a lobotomy to “cure” her anxiety problems. The whole story turns on the character of the son Sebastian, who is never seen in the film. Supposedly, dead of a heart attack, the audience finally discovers that he was murdered by a group of youths because of his homosexuality. Both Taylor and Hepburn were nominated for Oscars. It was the eighth nomination for Hepburn and the third nomination for Taylor. This original one sheet poster is in good condition with some tears in the border areas. Ask us about restoration and linen backing.

STAGE STRUCK (1958) U.S. Three sheet poster. Unused.
More Details
Sidney Lumet's 1958 remake of MORNING GLORY (1933) is yet another fable about the cold nature of showbiz. The beautiful and talented Eva Lovelace (Strasberg) is a small town actress who comes to New York to make it big on the stage, charming producers, playwrights, and actors in the process. Eva and Broadway bigwig Lewis Easton (Fonda) fall in love, but temporarily quell the romance for the sake of maintaining a professional relationship. Meanwhile, Eva manages to usurp the aging Rita Vernon's (Joan Greenwood) starring role in Lewis' latest production. Think 42ND STREET meets ALL ABOUT EVE. STAGE STRUCK features Jack Weston in a bit part and Christopher Plummer in his big-screen debut. Condition is very fine, never used, folded.
