In the Heat of the Night Original Film Pressbook
Beverly Hills CA: United Artists 1967. Original Pressbook for the 1967 film. <br/><br/>Sidney Poitier is a Philadelphia police detective recruited to help solve a murder in a small bigoted Mississippi town when he is accidentally implicated in the crime while passing through. The film dealt skillfully with the topic of race relations in the South during the Civil Rights movement and included a controversial scene in which a white actor Larry Gates slaps Poitier in the face at which point Poitier slaps him right back. It was said you could determine the racial makeup of a theater by their verbal reaction to the scene: cheers for a predominantly black audience or whispers for a predominantly white one. <br/><br/>Though set in the fictional town of Sparta Mississippi Poitier refused to travel below the Mason-Dixon Line so the film was shot largely in Illinois. Quincy Jones composed the soundtrack for the film. Winner of five Academy Awards including Best Picture and nominated for two others. <br/><br/>12 pages saddle stapled 13.25 x 18 inches. Near Fine creased. <br/><br/>National Film Registry. United Artists unknown books

Bradbound in mimeographed wrappers one is missing the top wrapper. Light soiling and use but very good. Two consecutive drafts of this original teleplay written by Nugent for creator- producer Merian C. Cooper. Though both are denoted "uncut revised" drafts the first is shot through with revises on colored papers dated from mid-November to early December. The second is a fresh draft incorporating the revisions and fixing pagination disruptions caused by lettered inserts in the first. The second bears the name in an unknown hand of Jean Nugent Frank Nugent's wife. Accompanied by another copy in photocopy of the second draft. Nugent and Cooper had worked together frequently particularly in harness with John Ford but this proposed project for television would appear not to have come to fruition. Set at Fort Teton on the western frontier it highlights the service of those soldiers in the Cavalry Band in the context of a potential clash between ranchers and resident tribes during a drought. "The Boilermakers" as the Cavalry Band was derisively labeled are generally portrayed as a lot of misfits and as a preliminary note on format indicates the series would be "uniquely told through the eyes of the continuing characters of a rag-tag singing- fighting Cavalry band with their varied racial backgrounds instruments and music . stories to be in the vein of the Merian C. Cooper - John Ford features 'She Wore a Yellow Ribbon' - 'Fort Apache' - 'Rio Grande' etc." Whether Ford was intended to sign on to direct this series is not indicated in the present material but it would not be beyond the realm of possibility.

Light soiling to fore-edge otherwise very good to fine.

The script is accompanied by a two page "Production Requirements" list dated 12 January 1973 and a "Staff and Crew List" dated 3 days earlier. John Frankenheimer directed the November 1973 release starring Lee Marvin Frederic March Robert Ryan Jeff Bridges Bradford Dillman et al. The 239 minute film does in the minds of many critics great honor to the sourcework and stands among the finest moments of the two seasons of the American Film Theatre. A substantially truncated version saw some distribution on television in later years but only recently has the original full-length version which required two intermissions been made available on DVD. Robert Ryan was the posthumous recipient of several awards for his role as Larry Slade and contrary to expectations Lee Marvin excelled in the role of Hickey a role virtually defined by Jason Robards. Legitimate examples of the scripts for the American Film Theatre productions are uncommon. The Ely Landau Organization, Inc. unknown
