THE PAINTED VEIL

Bradbound in studio wrappers with label upper wrapper in duplicate. Title of later remake lettered on spine otherwise very good to near fine. A composite script with later stamp denoting it a Vault Copy of this unproduced adaptation of Maugham's novel comprised of pages dated variously through August September and October. In 1934 MGM released John Meehan's adaptation starring Greta Garbo and were evidently exploring the possibility of a remake of the popular property. Swerling was a solid writer to bring to the task having worked recently on LIFEBOAT IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE LEAVE HER TO HEAVEN and other significant titles. But for whatever reason the project did not come to fruition and the film based on this script was not made. MGM returned again to Maugham's novel in 1957 and released an adaptation by Karl Tunberg under the title THE SEVENTH SIN. Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Pictures unknown books
