All of the acting performances are great, with Hemingway receiving a nomination of for Best Supporting Actress. The script is witty, and Allen and Marshall Brickman received the film’s only other Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay.

MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION (1954) 16591
Original Universal International One Sheet Poster (27×41). Linen-backed. Very fine.
More Details
This is an original Universal International One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Douglas Sirk classic melodrama, MAGNIFIENT OBSESSION (1954) based on the novel by Lloyd C. Douglas —starring Jane Wyman and Rock Hudson. This film was a remake of the 1935 version, which stars Irene Dunne and Robert Taylor. Just as the earlier film made Robert Taylor’s career, this film was a breakthrough film for Rock Hudson. Indeed, he would do eight more successful movies with Sirk. In this film, Hudson plays a shallow, womanizing, heavy drinking, spoiled playboy. Causing an accident in which Wyman goes blind, he tries to redeem himself by giving selflessly to others and devoting his life to medicine to find a way to restore her eyesight. With excellent performances by Hudson and Wyman (who was nominated for Best Actress), superb production values, and an emotional classical score by Frank Skinner, this drama became an audience favorite. This original one sheet poster is linen-backed and in very fine condition.
LOVER COME BACK (1961) 1075
Original Universal Pictures Twenty Four Sheet Poster (9ftx20ft). Very fine condition.
More Details
This is an original Universal Pictures Twenty Four Sheet Poster (9ftx20ft) for the Delbert Mann romantic comedy, LOVER COME BACK (1961)—starring Rock Hudson, Doris Day, Tony Randall, and Edie Adams. Jerry (Hudson) and Carol (Day) are both advertising executives for different agencies, but playboy Jerry steals every account from Carol’s reach. One of Jerry’s scams is the invention of a non-existent product called VIP, which he markets so successfully that it becomes an overnight sensation. This sets up a hilarious meeting between the two that includes a case of mistaken identity, a nutty professor, and a bungled seduction. The comic chemistry between Hudson and Day is unique and used quite skillfully by the clever and funny screenplay by Stanley Shapiro and Paul Henning who received Academy Award nominations for Best Screenplay. This original twenty four sheet poster is in very fine condition.
LOLITA (1962) 15428
Original MGM One Sheet Poster (27×41). Linen-backed. Near Mint.
More Details
This is an original MGM one sheet poster for the Stanley Kubrick masterpiece LOLITA (1962)—starring James Mason, Shelly Winters, Sue Lyon, and Peter Sellers. This is the tawdry but darkly hilarious story of a middle-aged professor (Mason) who becomes infatuated with a pubescent "nymphet" (Lyon), marries her lonely and sexually famished mother (Winters) in order to be closer to the under-age object of his obsession. His affections will be ultimately thwarted by a devious trickster named Clare Quilty (Sellers). The author of both the original novel and screenplay, Vladimir Nabokov, was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Screenplay and the Director’s Guild of America nominated Kubrick for Best Director. This original studio one sheet is in near mint condition and has been expertly linen-backed.
LOLA (1961) 6294
Original French “Affiche” Poster (24×32). Near mint condition.
More Details
Original French poster (24x32) for the Jacques Demy romantic drama, LOLA (1961)—starring Anouk Aimee, Marc Michel, and Jacques Harden. Demy’s first and one of the most loveable films of the French New Wave, LOLA was originally conceived as a Technicolor musical but wound up being shot as a black and white drama. A bored young man Roland (Michel) has a chance meeting with Lola (Aimee), a cabaret dancer he knew in his teens. This chance meeting could have lasting consequences and possibly enduring devotion. The vividly drawn characters of this remarkable film are sincere, complex, and entirely empathetic. The general ambience and cinematography are beautiful and perfectly complimented by the original music of Michel Legrand sprinkled with Mozart and Beethoven. The poster is decorated with the lovely Anouk Aimee. The poster is in near mint condition.
LIFE BEGINS FOR ANDY HARDY (1941)
Original MGM Insert Poster (14×36). Linen-backed. Very good condition.
More Details
Original MGM Insert Poster (14x36) for the Goerge B. Seitz romantic comedy, LIFE BEGINS FOR ANDY HARDY (1941). Wonderful photography of America's favorite teenagers of the late 1930s and early 1940s, Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney. Garland appeared three times as the character Betsy Booth in the Hardy series. This was her final appearance in these films, and the movie is not the usual Hardy fare. The teens must face incipient adulthood in a world soon to be at war. Mickey moves to New York City, and soon finds that the Big Apple is a place with girls - and even more serious problems, just like anywhere else. LIFE BEGINS FOR ANDY HARDY has the most intelligent script of the series. Even though Mickey Rooney would go on to make several more of these, MGM would never again try to solemnize the ritual in quite this way. This poster is on an old linen and its overall condition is very good, and while it would frame nicely, it could be rebacked. Rare in this format, we think it is the best poster for the film.
LIBELED LADY (1936) 19857
Original MGM Midget Window Card (8×11). Very fine condition.
More Details
Original MGM Midget Window Card (8x11) for the Jack Conway romantic comedy, LIBELED LADY (1936)—starring Jean Harlow, William Powell, Myrna Loy, and Spencer Tracy. Tracy plays a newspaper editor whose own wedding plans have to be interrupted when his newspaper runs a libelous story about the daughter of one of his competitors. The daughter (Loy) slaps a $5 million lawsuit against Tracy’s newspaper. Tracey tries to get Powell to charm Loy into an “indelicate situation.” Powell and Loy get tons of sparkling dialogue and witty repartee, and their on-screen chemistry is legendary (they made 14 films together). The film received an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture. This original midget window card is in very fine condition, with only 1/2" chip missing in the lower right hand corner.
LEGEND (1985) 10497
Original Universal Pictures One Sheet Poster (27×41). Originally folded. Very good condition.
More Details
This is an original Universal Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Ridley Scott fantasy adventure, LEGEND (1985)—starring Tom Cruise, Mia Sara, and Tim Curry. Following BLADE RUNNER (1982), this definitive fairy tale was Ridley Scott’s fourth film. The poster is difficult to find. The three main cast members give exceptional performances. Cruise is quite effective and believable, and Mia Sara is convincingly naïve and pure. But Tim Curry steals the show as Lord of Darkness. The cinematography, editing, and special effects are exceptional; indeed, each scene is artfully conceived. Originally folded, this original one sheet poster is in very good condition. Now hard to get.
