Herbert Dalmas (screenwriter)
The American Girl Original screenplay for an unproduced film
N.p.: N.p. 1940. Draft script for an unproduced film. <br /> <br /> The daughter of a wealthy New York City businessman struggles over her position in life when she can't seem to choose between a wealthy British suitor and a middle class New York City police detective. She attempts to strike out on her own and work for her own money but the men in her life secretly protect her. Although it disturbs her when she finds out she's been watched over she eventually forgives them both and then must choose one to marry of course. <br /> <br /> Though similar in title to the 1944 King Vidor film "An American Romance" also written by Herbert Dalmas this script bears little to no resemblance in plot to that film and we must assume that this was an earlier less effective screenplay of Dalmas'. <br /> <br /> Pale yellow wrappers with credits for screenwriter Dalmas. 177 leaves carbon typescript.

The Exorcist Original oversize double weight still photograph from the 1972 film
Burbank CA: Warner Brothers 1972. Vintage oversize borderless double weight black and white photograph from the 1972 film. An amazing image showing Max von Sydow looming above-and seemingly beyond-a very possessed young Linda Blair. <br /> <br /> One of the great genre films of the 1970s that accomplished the uncommon feat of being an over-the-top sensation upon its release and gaining subsequent status as a classic with a strangeness and depth supplied by Burstyn and Sydow that only increases with repeated viewings. Another distinction of "The Exorcist" was that it walked away with 2 Oscars including Best Screenplay for Blatty along with 8 nominations including Best Picture a feat nearly unheard for a horror film. <br /> <br /> 11 x 14 inches. Near Fine. Warner Brothers unknown

Complete archive of scripts for Wonderful You Eleven original screenplays for all seven episodes of the 1999 television miniseries
Cardiff Wales: Hartswood Films 1998. An archive of 11 scripts for the complete 7 episode British television miniseries "Wonderful You." Copies belonging to make-up artist Teresa Kelly with her manuscript name and annotations throughout in highlighter and ink. Included in the listing are Archive also includes 20 pages of call sheets and shooting schedules with Kelly's manuscript annotations. <br /> <br /> Almost certainly begun as an attempt to at least in part mimic the early success of the long-running sitcom "Friends" "Wonderful You" follows a group of thirty-something aged friends in London as they navigate their convoluted interpersonal relationships. Unlike "Friends" however in which all the main characters start out as single and slowly acquire partners "Wonderful You" contains a number of different states of romantic relationships right from the beginning including a few single people a successful couple in a long term relationship a gay couple and an unhappily married couple with a young son. Though "Friends" may be considered one of the more successful sitcoms of the late 1990s and certainly one of the longest-running "Wonderful You" instead makes a much more succinct and arguably much less saccharine statement about the nature of relationships themselves. Shot on location in London. <br /> <br /> Scripts all housed in tall white self wrappers as issued some unbound sheets and some prong bound. One script then further housed in a red spring binder. All have credits for screenwriters Niel and Lumsden. Title page integral with the front wrappers. Mechanical duplication some with pink blue or yellow revision pages.
