He has no job. He waits, handsome, sleek, charming for the American widows who come to Rome."; "In Rome there is a countess who 'arranges' things. If you are wealthy and no longer young, like Karen Stone, you cover your shame with perfume and you call the countess."; "The daring production of Tennessee William's only novel..."; "The story of an American woman and her abandonment in Rome."; "Vivien Leigh in the daring production of Tennessee Williams' only novel..."; "adapted from the novel by Tennessee Williams"; "Screenplay by Gavin Lambert"; about an older successful American woman who moves to Italy and has a tragic romance with a young Italian gigolo) starring Vivien Leigh (in the title role as Karen Stone), Warren Beatty ("as Paolo"; in his second movie role!), Lotte Lenya (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Jill St. John, Coral Browne, and Jeremy Spenser NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Also note that this still appears in every way to be original U.S. release EXCEPT that there is one very tiny line of French type in the lower right. It reads, "IMPRIME AUX ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE". A collector has told us that he believes this means the still was printed for use in areas that included French-speaking parts of Canada, but that it WAS printed in the U.S., and that makes complete sense to us! So it is an original still from 1961, but it was printed partially for use in French-speaking Canada. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that this still has a stamp on the back in the form of a diamond that has "TRR" running down the center. One certainly might wonder who placed this stamp there and why. The answer is that the still (and many others we are auctioning in this set of auctions) come to us from a still collector who has collected for many decades, and long ago he began stamping the back of his stills with this stamp, and "TRR" is his initials! Each of the stills is stamped lightly, and the stamp does NOT affect the front of the still. He is a VERY advanced collector, and he has consigned many wonderful stills to us! Condition: very good to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
