Paperback. Condition: Very Good. [Los Angeles]: Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation, 1968. 145 pp. and 140 pp. Two scripts bound with brass brads in blue covers, Revised Screenplay dated June 12, 1967 with Moffat credited as writer, and Final dated July 2, 1968 with Marcus credited as writer. Uneven sunning to covers of both…scripts, with nicking and bumping to extremities of both. Titles written in felt tip pen on spine of both scripts. Text of Revised copy printed on pale green paper, with text of Final version printed on blue, pale green, and pink paper. Based on Lawrence Durrell's 1957 novel of the same name, Justine is a film best seen as a creation that is independent of the book. Initially the film was directed by Joseph Strick, but it is rumoured that he was fired for his behavior while filming on location. George Cukor was brought in to finish the film, which resulted in a film with a plot that is largely incomprehensible, yet texturally rich. . Single Sheet. Very Good.

Contact seller5-star sellerOriginal title card maquette hand lettered by Harold Adler for the 1969 film. Based on the "Alexandria Quartet" by Lawrence Durrell. Harold Adler was a calligrapher who created hand lettered titles on over 100 films, worked frequently with Alfred Hitchcock, and was a favorite of legendary title sequence designers Saul Bass and P…ablo Ferro. In addition to "Justine" his credits include "Comanche!" (1956), "The Man with the Golden Arm" (1955), "The Seven Year Itch" (1955), "Carmen Jones" (1954), "Psycho" (1960), "The Birds" (1963), "In the Heat of the Night" (1967), and "Finian's Rainbow" (1969). In 2012, an exhibition of Adler's work was organized by noted typographer and design historian Jill Bell at the American Advertising Federation, Kansas City. A young British schoolmaster and poet travels to Alexandria, where he meets Justine, the mysterious wife of a banker, whom he discovers is involved in a plot to arm the Jewish underground in Palestine. Shot, in part, on location in Tunisia. 17.25 x 11.5 inches. Black ink on white card stock, with tissue paper overlay. Near Fine, with light toning to the card edges. Manuscript annotations, one noting "original," to the tissue overlay and card.
