[MOPO] FA - Ultra-rare Brief Encounter (1945) country-of-origin (UK) pressbook.

2019-06-05 Thread David Kusumoto
* FYI, ranked #2 by the British Film Institute (BFI) as the second-greatest 
British film ever made - (behind "The Third Man") - a 1945 country-of-origin 
pressbook from "Brief Encounter," directed by David Lean and written by Noel 
Coward - will be offered tomorrow (Thursday, 6 June 2019) - via 
eMoviePoster.com.

* To my knowledge, this scarce post-WWII-era U.K. paper from a classic title - 
featuring poster images and film production details - has never before been 
brought to auction.  The pressbook is in high-grade condition and was issued 
after the film's November 1945 world premiere in London.

* Lesser-known to mainstream movie fans and poster collectors - original 1945 
U.K. paper from "Brief Encounter" is rare - with most U.K. quads, half-sheets 
and the glorious 20x60 - in private hands or non-existent.

* Pitched to USA audiences in 1946 as a "woman's film" - I remember being swept 
away the first time I saw this 86-minute jewel box classic in the early 90s - 
which boasts a Rachmaninoff piano score - (parodied later in "The Seven Year 
Itch") - and was shot in a "film noir" style before the term was coined, e.g., 
night-time scenes at railway stations, in tunnels, at parks, in theaters, etc., 
- all in high-contrast B/W with lots of shadows, camera tilts, pivots and pans. 
 I personally don't know more than five people who've even seen this glorious 
picture - an who love it as much as I do.  Actress Celia Johnson lost Best 
Actress Oscar to Olivia De Havilland for her perf in "To Each His Own."  "Brief 
Encounter" is still available on Criterion Blu-ray and DVD.

* Kathryn Altman, widow of director Robert Altman - describing her husband's 
memories about "Brief Encounter," said, "One day, years and years ago, just 
after the war, [Altman] had nothing to do.  So he went to a theater in the 
middle of the afternoon to see a movie. Not a Hollywood movie: a British movie. 
He said the main character was not glamorous, not a babe. And at first he 
wondered why he was even watching it. But twenty minutes later he was in tears, 
and he had fallen in love with (actress Celia Johnson). And it made him feel 
that it wasn't just a movie."

great Post Paul and morrie!

made me think why i sold memorabilia..
 I started as a musician...tryingtoo ge a record deal..in 1976...I was 
Mel Blanc who said well you may not geta dealbut youwill find a 
niche..justhang inthere...


so in1977 as i had a booking agency andhad descorated myofficvein Movie 
memorabilia, a friend broughtin a 1920s photoplaymovie magazimnehe 
said youloveallthis Hollywood stuff..ibet you could sll it.
so i started ads in Film colectors world.Bigg reel.classic mages..doing 
mail order...


I was theoldtimes of the filmcollectors that gave methelittle deducation 
I haveover 42 years..the kindness andsharing theyoffered me nec they 
could see i wanted to know..andhad the samelove just didnt know the 
history ofit..
I used towatch the MGM 19790auction Film doc Hollywood the 
dreamFactory..inmyoffice..and bein wonder,,thats how ilearned itws 
Debbie Reynolds who saved stuffwhenitwas considered JUnk.,..
so thegeeky collectosr who didntthinkthestuffwas worth Much but loved it 
weremy teachersmany gotit free!!! I have heard storys that would 
blow your mind..


but the collectors would call me and educate meonthe 
eras.actors..production,studio history...forall the depts ofthe 
BIzso the friendships as i soldto book authors like Herb Bridges, 
James Parrish..masny who would educate me..I used tothinkill never 
remeber this!!!


Kubrick was also Speilbergs fave andi sold most myKubrick to Adrian 
Cowdry fromtheUK when he cametoCinevent a few years back,,,Barry 
lyndon..andothers inserts as likeyou he wanted specifics..likeJames 
boond...but thepartI rembermostwas his kindness.. big guy thatlooked 
likea viking..he loved movies...
whenMorrie stopped by myshop...I was intebackyard cleaning 16mmmovie 
film with Filmrenew a stnky film cleaner,,, so i met Morrie one time..he 
boughta originalstamped 11x14 Mae Wesrt still..as he is a collectors 
collector,,intotherare stuff...i had a few rare thingsover theyears 
andsold it to collectors allover the world...evenhad a benHur suit of 
anor,,screen worn sold it,, butwitheach sale i gotaa education...


and made a friend...andmany times a new teacher
see we ar just stewards ofthestuuff,,,we never really own anything...we 
are gaudians..our Jobisto share,,educate ,keep the memorys alive..if we 
canpay the bills, andeat thats a extra,,,butmost 
becomeobsessed...likeyouand morie..andas farsas bigmoney most dontcare 
that much,,a few see itas commoditys..andi feelsory forthemn 
itslikethescene inRaidersofthelost ark...it ends up ina box ,hidden

theperfect placeto nework,,Rich halagua,,morrie,,and other s all know 
it,,its just time to pass the torch,,to new stewards...as many are 
passing away so i suggest find new young peopleto do that

Great to hear Morris! I’m probably a lesser minority of Cinevent’s
target audience simply because my interests are so focused (Kubrick).
His films cover such a tiny part of the history of film as opposed to
the thousands of titles that the majority of Cinevent participants
deal in so I hope everyone took my review of the event with a grain of
salt.

I’ve actually recommended to several of my film industry friends
(that collect memorabilia) that they should attend the event because
as you mention there is no greater convention for this hobby! For
those not as specialized as me (and for those that are) there is
definitely something there for everyone.

I was mentioning to another member that while going through a pile of
stills at the event I was talking with one collector who just collects
