An Original Vintage Movie Script (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm], 105 pages) (Learn More) The Versailles Exit, the 1972 movie script written by Hubert Cornfield. It appears that this script was never produced, but we are far from experts on this subject. If anyone knows more about this script, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that this script is from 1972 and the screenplay was written by Hubert Cornfield. Note that this script comes together with a critique of the script by Ilsa Lahn, an employee at Paul Kohner's office. Miss Lahn says that she doesn't like the script at all, and "there is not a good role in the whole thing". At the top of that critique is the name "Charles Bronson", and apparently, the script was submitted for Charles Bronson to consider. There is a copy of a letter from Paul Kohner also included, where he sent the script to Charles Bronson, and he wrote "Dear Charlie", and told him he was passing the script along (see the letter). Note that this is a script for a screenplay that was likely never produced. The script was sent to agent Paul Kohner (see below), and it is 100% certainly an original script that was created at the time we indicate above, and it is NOT any sort of copy or later creation. The person who purchases this unproduced script is solely purchasing the script itself, and NOT any right to reproduce it in any way, or publish it. This script comes from the estate of Paul Kohner, who had a remarkable life! Kohner was born in Czechoslovakia in 1902, and he was a journalist working at his father's newspaper. He came to Hollywood after interviewing Carl Laemmle, who gave him a job as a publicity man. He became the head of Universal's European department in Berlin, and returned to the U.S. in the early 1930s, and left Universal in 1938, becoming a publicity agent. Among his clients were some of the greatest film stars ever, including Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman, and also great directors such as John Huston and Billy Wilder. He had close personal friendships with many of his clients, and he saved every bit of correspondence and paper work from his agency! He was married to actress Lupita Tovar from 1932 until his death in 1988. Amazingly, after his death, few institutions showed interest in his immense files, and only a small amount ended up being saved, with a lot literally thrown away! Our consignor purchased the item offered here from Mr. Kohner's estate in 1989, and he has held it until now, when he has consigned several items from Mr. Kohner's estate to eMoviePoster.com, and each item is being auctioned separately. Condition: good. There is staining around the edges of the first two interior pages and some on both covers. One of the metal pieces holding the script together is rusted, and the other is missing, but otherwise, the script is in pretty good condition. Note that we have photographed the cover of the script, the title page, the final page of the script (the one that reads "THE END"), and one or more interior pages. These images will not only provide important information about the script, but they also allow you to closely judge the condition of the script. The script is 100% complete!
