An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) Red River, the classic 1948 Howard Hawks Texas romantic family relationship cattle drive cowboy western ("Fighting like you've never seen before!"; "Cattle-drive, the longest in the history of the West!"; "Stampede as thousands of fear-crazed cattle run"; "Indian massacres and attacks from the Panhandle to Missouri"; "Love as deep and tender as their hearts were bold!"; "Manhunt with no quarter asked or given"; "Gun-play as breath-taking as a coyote's howl at night!"; "Not since 'The Covered Wagon' and 'Cimarron' has there been a motion picture like 'Red River'"; "There was glory at one end - fury at the other - and nothing but danger in between!"; "Howard Hawks who gave you 'Scarface' and 'Sergeant York' now brings you The Greatest Story The West Ever Told!"; "In 25 Years - Only Three! Covered Wagon, Cimarron, and now... Red River"; "Blazing in its action - thundering in its drama - stirring in the sweep of its fabulous production!"; "From the original Saturday Evening Post story 'The Chisholm Trail' by Borden Chase") starring John Wayne, Montgomery Clift, Walter Brennan, Joanne Dru, Harry Carey Sr., Coleen Gray, John Ireland, Noah Beery Jr., Harry Carey Jr., Paul Fix, Mickey Kuhn, Hank Worden, and Hal Taliaferro. Note that this movie was filmed in 1946, but was held back so as to not interfere with the major delayed 1946 release of "The Outlaw", co-directed by Howard Hawks (although Howard Hughes took all the credit!). It was intended to be Montgomery Clift's first movie, but this delay caused it to be released after "The Search", making it his second movie. Also, Clift and Wayne had very differing political views, and did not take to each other at all, but that likely helped the movie, since their characters were at odds with each other through almost the entire movie. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that other cast seen in the still include Hank Worden and Hal Taliaferro. Also, note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: very good. The left 1" and part of the top and bottom borders were neatly trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
