About This Item
Madison: University of Wisconsin Press. Near Fine in Very Good dj. 1981. First Edition. Hardcover. 0299087603 . [minor bumping in vicinity of spine ends, otherwise a tight clean copy with minimal wear; jacket moderately edgeworn, small tear and a bit of paper loss at top of spine, soiling to rear panel]. (Wisconsin/Warner Bros. Screenplay series) Series (B&W photographs) Typically excellent entry in this screenplay series, with an erudite introduction by historian Bernard F. Dick, discussing the "factual, anecdotal and mythical" history of this classic film. In addition to the screenplay itself (annotated by the editor), the volume includes a healthy selection of frame blow-ups from the film. The only sour note is that this volume exhibits what I consider to be a major problem with this series, namely its failure to give the names of the actual SCREENWRITERS the prominence they deserve: the writers' names are on neither the books' covers nor their title pages, but can only be found on the first page of the script itself. For shame. .
