Busch Niven source work: Selznick David O. screenwriter
. DUEL IN THE SUN FROM THE NOVEL BY NIVEN BUSCH .
Culver City: Selznick International Pictures 1946. 208 leaves. Quarto. Mimeographed typescript printed on rectos only. Bradbound in typescript studio wrappers. Upper wrapper smudged and snagged at one brad lower wrapper a bit dusty otherwise very good internally near fine. A "final script" for the 1947 Selznick adaptation to the screen of Busch's 1944 novel directed by King Vidor starring Jennifer Jones Joseph Cotton Gregory Peck Lionel Barrymore Lillian Gish Butterfly McQueen and Harry Carey. The film won the award for the Best Overall Production at the Venice Film Festival. The first two leaves are salmon revises dated 10/7/46. The film had something of a bumpy development - although Busch was himself a productive screenwriter for three decades with a dozen credited screenplays and uncredited work on others and he was responsible for a full treatment and collaborative early draft of the screenplay his final screen credit for the film consisted solely of "Suggested by a Novel by ." The present draft drops credit to Oliver P. Garrett who was involved in several of the drafts subsequent to Busch's treatment and is credited solely to Selznick. Ben Hecht had dropped in for some uncredited script doctoring and several uncredited directors including Josef von Sternberg eventually stepped in to help out. Many changes were required to accommodate the various protectors of public morality and an analysis of the evolution of the film through the succession of the widely disparate scripts would likely be informative.

Busch Niven source work: Garrett Oliver H. P. screenwriter
. DUEL IN THE SUN FROM THE NOVEL BY NIVEN BUSCH .
Culver City: Vanguard Films Inc. 1945. 1168 leaves altered by scores of dated revises on colored paper and lettered inserts. Quarto. Mimeographed typescript printed on rectos only. Bradbound but without title- leaf and upper wrapper. The preliminary leaf with script number and receipt coupon is intact and unclipped. Modest use otherwise very good to near fine. A heavily revised rainbow script with a primary date the same as one of the early forms of the "final shooting script" but substantially altered over more than five months by dated revises and inserts. David O. Selznick's adaptation to the screen of Busch's 1944 novel directed by King Vidor starring Jennifer Jones Joseph Cotten Gregory Peck Lionel Barrymore Lillian Gish Butterfly McQueen and Harry Carey. Eventually the film won the award for the Best Overall Production at the Venice Film Festival but had something of a bumpy road in development. Although Busch was himself a productive screenwriter for three decades with a dozen credited screenplays and uncredited work on others and he was responsible for a full treatment and collaborative early draft of the screenplay his final screen credit for the film consisted solely of "Suggested by a Novel by ." The present draft credits the script to Oliver Garrett solo. In fact an actual final shooting script would turn out to be nearly 11 months away with Ben Hecht doing some uncredited script doctoring and several uncredited directors including Josef von Sternberg stepping in to help out. Many changes were required to accommodate the various protectors of public morality and an analysis of the evolution of the film through the succession of widely disparate scripts would be informative. By the time an as yet further revised "final shooting script" dated 12 January 1946 rolled around David O. Selznick was the sole credit for screenwriter printed on the 208pp script and the Vanguard Films association was dropped entirely for Selznick International. Vanguard Films Inc. unknown books

Culver City: Vanguard Films 1944. 23 leaves. Quarto. Mimeographed typescript printed on rectos only bradbound in mimeographed wrappers. A bit of rust to brads a couple of small stray marks to wrappers otherwise near fine. A treatment serving as an early prelude to the 1946/7 screen adaptation of Busch's 1944 novel. While Busch is not identified as the author of this treatment his responsibility is a strong possibility given his co- authorship with Oliver Garrett of a 24 July 1944 estimating draft 134 leaves. The long development track for the film involved many more writers including Garrett Stephen Longstreet and Ben Hecht with final writing credits being appropriated by Selznick with Busch's role being demoted to "Suggested by a Novel by ."
