Vintage reference photograph from the 1924 film, showing actor Gibson Gowland in character as McTeague. Printed mimeo snipe affixed to the verso. From the archive of film historian and author Joel Finler. Based on the 1899 novel "McTeague" by Frank Norris. An impoverished miner-turned-dentist wins the lottery, but the ensuing fortune threatens to ruin the lives of everyone it touches. Director Erich von Stroheim's masterpiece, one of the first films to be shot entirely on location, in San Francisco and Death Valley, using (what were then considered) sophisticated and relatively new filming techniques, such as montage editing and deep focus. Stroheim's first cut of the film was a mammoth, 9.5 hour presentation, edited down to two and a half hours against his wishes. All that survives today is a restored, slightly choppy but coherent 240-minute version, supplanted with still photographs, that conveys to the viewer the unimaginable grandeur of the original. 7.5 x 9.75 inches. Very Good plus, with brief wear along the bottom edge and a small toned spot near the bottom left corner. National Film Registry. Ebert I. Godard, Histoire(s) du cinema. Rosenbaum 1000.…

First Edition. Signed and inscribed by the author Weinberg Herman to director and editor Irving Lerner. Inscribed at the front free endpaper: ÒFor Irving Lerner, with best wishes & the hope our paths will cross again! Herman Weinberg, 9/4/73Ó. Oversize format. Lavish and painstaking reproduction of Austrian-American director Erich von StroheimÕs epic film Greed, based on Frank NorrisÕs novel ÔMcTeagueÕ. Very good plus with a touch of foxing to the preliminaries in the original plastic dust jacket which is a bit dust soiled. The original version of ÔGreedÕ was 9 1/2 hours long, but the 1924 released version was radically trimmed down to a 2 1/2 hour-long film. This book attempts to come as close as possible to recreating Von StroheimÕs original vision and is illustrated with some four hundred photographs. Greed stars Gibson Gowland, Zasu Pitts, and Jean Hersholt in the story of how a sudden fortune won from a lottery fans the flames of such destructive greed that it ruins the lives of the three people involved. Irving Lerner (1909 - 1976) was an early member of Workers Film and Photo League and film critic for the left wing journals New Masses and New Theatre. He is best known for directing the films Murder by Contract (1958), City of Fear (1959), Cry of Battle (1963) and for producing Captain Apache (1971). A stunning work of creativity and scholarship.
