Description

The Bad and the Beautiful (MGM, 1953). Insert (14" X 36").
Loosely based on the career of David O. Selznick, this five time Oscar winning film provides an unvarnished look at the inner workings of Hollywood. Kirk Douglas plays a ruthless movie mogul whose studio needs a box office winner. He must find a way to convince actress Lana Turner, writer Dick Powell, and director Barry Sullivan to sign on, even though all despise him for his past betrayals and abuse. Turner is as luminous as Douglas is menacing on this beautiful insert. Crisp and clean, the piece has had touch-up applied to a tear in the top and right border. Fine/Very Fine.
