Shadows Original photograph from the 1959 film
N.p.: Lion International 1959. Vintage studio still photograph from the 1959 film. The first film by Cassavetes for which he raised the entirety of the production budget himself the story of three African American siblings in Harlem two of whom often pass for white. Begun as an acting exercise in a workshop Cassavetes was conducting with Burt Lane the story was originally filmed in 1958 with completely improvised dialogue and action based on scene outlines created by Cassavetes. After the film was poorly received at its three initial screening by just about everyone Cassavetes knew he reworked the ideas into a more traditional script with screenwriter Robert Alan Arthur and reshot the film replacing between half and two thirds of the original footage and dramatically altering the story. Released in 1959 this version better reflected his vision for the film and received a critics award when shown at the Venice Film Festival the following year. A watershed moment in American independent films heralding not just the arrival of a new iconoclastic director but the birth of an entire movement. Shot on location in New York. 8 x 10 inches. Near Fine. Complete collation details available on request. Lion International unknown

In this case it's "Emmanuelle" star Sylvia Kristel whose car breaks down in the middle of the night after she walks out on her husband and Chabrol is more interested in her journey toward emancipation than actual horror.

And Now Tomorrow Original screenplay for the 1944 film
Hollywood: Paramount Pictures 1943. Revised Draft script for the 1943 film. Co-written for the screen by Raymond Chandler and Frank Partos. Chandler's contribution to the script had mostly to do with Alan Ladd's character and his tough dialogue elements sneered at by the media upon the film's release. Laid in is an 8-page shooting schedule on blue stock a 6-page revision to sequence "A" on yellow onionskin stock and 14 pages of "inter-office communication" on yellow studio stationery comments on scenes sequences and pages of the script. Based on Rachel Field's 1942 novel about Emily Blair Loretta Young a wealthy deaf girl whose hometown is named for her family. Doctor Vance Ladd who grew up on the other side of town resents the Blair family but is working on a serum to cure deafness which he tries on Emily and she is eventually cured. One of only five screenplays written by Chandler this being the second following his script for the classic "Double Indemnity" 1944 based on James M. Cain's novel. Chandler had a tumultuous career in Hollywood including a suspension in late 1945 from Paramount for "refusing to perform under a contract which is not a proper expression of my standing in the motion picture business" but his influence on film adaptation is nearly unmatched with scripts and stories that pushed the limits of the Production Code Administration.

Title page integral with front wrapper in the Paramount style. 137 leaves mimeograph duplication with blue and light blue revision pages throughout dated variously between 1/11/43 possibly a typo and 3/30/44 other leaves dated variously between 12/3/43 and 12/5/44 possibly a typo.
