About This Item
New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston. Very Good+ in Near Fine dj. (c.1980). First Edition. Hardcover. [a bit of foxing to the top edge of the text block, very light shelfwear to the bottom edge; the jacket shows only the slightest surface handling wear]. (B&W photographs) A case study of the production of Otto Preminger's notoriously awful 1976 film ROSEBUD, "a movie that had everything going for it": big-time studio backing (United Artists), a top-flight director (although admittedly past his prime), major stars, international locations, even a great poster design and title sequence (by the great Saul Bass). "It should have been big box offie. It turned out a big bomb." .
