Hearst William Randolph executive producer; Gregory LaCava director; Carey Wilson screenwriter; Walter Huston Franchot Tone J
Gabriel Over the White House Original Draft MGM script of the novel's text
Beverly Hills CA: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer MGM 1933. An early draft in script format of the 1933 novel "Gabriel Over the White House" written by Thomas Frederic Tweed. This draft was developed the same year into the 1933 pre-Code film directed by Gregory LaCava written for the screen by Carey Wilson and starring Walter Huston Franchot Tone and Jean Parker. The novel is in "script" format produced by MGM after the studio optioned the rights to the book in 1932 prior to publication. Tweed's novel was first published as "Rinehard" in the UK in 1933 then in the US the same year as "Gabriel Over the White House" but with the author's name replaced as "Anonymous" probably for sensational effect. William Randolph Hearst took a strong interest in the comic novel's unique political tone which has since been variously described as promoting socialism national socialism and fascism and provided financial backing to purchase the option on the book and have MGM produce it. The resulting pre-Code film has remained controversial since the time of its release widely acknowledged to be totalitarian propoganda in the guise of a comic fantasy. In the story a Warren G. Harding-esque partisan hand-shaker becomes President of the United States and after seeing a vision revokes the Constitution becomes a reigning dictator and solves all the nation's problems. MGM studio president Louis B. Mayer disagreed with and somewhat feared the film's wild political sentiments and as an acknowledged supporter of Hoover's second term held up release until after the Hoover-FDR election in the fall of 1932 for all the good it did. Light blue titled wrappers with the white MGM title label rubber-stamped project No. 584 dated January 6 1933. Title page present with credits for the US publisher Farrar and Rinehart and in keeping with the publication precedent of that edition no mention of the author's name. 282 leaves mimeograph duplication. Pages and wrapper Very Good plus bound with two tarnished gold brads. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer [MGM] unknown

Folded as issued with a minute break at intersection of two folds discreet marginal staple holes identifying stamps else about fine. A one sheet promoting the 1957 substantially reedited rerelease of the film originally distributed in 1943 as THE NORTH STAR. In its original form the film was one of several projects undertaken by Hollywood at the behest of the U.S. government in order to clarify the occasionally confusing state of Soviet/U.S. relations brought on by the war alliance and to promote a sympathetic understanding of the plight of the common Russian peoples in the face of the Nazi invasion. Samuel Goldwyn enlisted Lewis Milestone All Quiet on the Western Front as director Lillian Hellman as screenwriter and Aaron Copland and Ira Gershwin as composers of the score. The cast included Anne Baxter Dana Andrews Walter Huston Farley Granger and Erich von Stroheim. Margaret Bourke-White recently returned from her coverage of the Eastern Front was hired as still-photographer a role which was quite atypical for her. The film was nominated for six Academy Awards in 1944 but in 1947 it was deemed subversive by the House Committee on Un-American Activities HUAC. Eventually a decade later it was recut - at the cost of some 28 minutes of running time - and distributed in this form to suit the revisionist temper of the times accentuating the battles with the Nazis and diminishing considerably the role of the Soviets and any sympathy for them. Of course credit to Lillian Hellman appears nowhere on this poster. A relic of an ignoble chapter in film history. NTA Pictures unknown
