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.

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 Monkey Hustle The Monkey Hu$tle Original poster for the 1976 film
Los Angeles: American International Pictures AIP 1976. Original one sheet poster for the 1976 Blaxploitation film "The Monkey Hustle."<br /> <br /> A classic entry in the action comedy subset of Blaxploitation films in which a neighborhood must band together in order to prevent the city from demolishing their homes to build a highway. Set in Chicago and shot there on location. <br /> <br /> Largely low-budget and geared towards a young urban audience Blaxploitation films often depicted African Americans overcoming hostile authorities through cunning and violence as well as conflicts internal to the culture. Though some of the first mainstream films to feature predominantly black casts and introduce previously non-represented elements of black culture including the notable use of funk and soul music in soundtracks they were also panned for furthering stereotypes about black people. Despite the controversy that the genre instilled its motifs remain culturally relevant to this day often parodied acknowledged and imitated in modern films and music. <br /> <br /> 27 x 41 inches folded. Near Fine. <br /> <br /> Parish and Hill 149. Howard Blaxploitation Cinema p. 43-44 174-175. American International Pictures [AIP] unknown
