12 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More)

The Shrike, the 1955 Jose Ferrer New York City Broadway theater stage acting troubled marriage melodrama ("Destined to be the most talked about Motion Picture of the Year!"; "Every shocking emotion of the great Pulitzer Prize play!"; "All the startling intimacy of the Pulitzer Prize play!"; "'Don't call me a Shrike until you've heard my story... any woman would use whatever weapons she has - to hold the man she loves. ...And any wife will know why I did the things I did!'"; "Based on the play by Joseph Kramm"; about a Broadway director who is recovering in a hospital after an attempted suicide, and he is visited daily by his wife, who appears saintly to outsiders, but actually is a terrible shrew who drove him to attempt suicide in the first place!) starring Jose Ferrer, June Allyson, Joy Page, Kendall Clark, Isabel Bonner, and Edward Platt. Note that this movie was extremely odd casting for the very likeable June Allyson, and the screenwriters of the movie tried to make her character more likeable, which had the effect of hurting the underlying message of the movie. The movie would surely have been far better with the star of the Broadway production (also directed by and starring Jose Ferrer), Judith Evelyn, in the role of the wife.

Important Added Info: SUPER IMPORTANT! THOUGH ONLY EIGHT OF THE STILLS ARE PICTURED, THE HIGH BIDDER ON THIS LOT WILL RECEIVE 12 STILLS FROM THIS MOVIE (but realize that on some of these lots with 9 or more stills there may be a few duplicates, mostly on post-1960 lots)! We realize there is an element of gambling to this, but we made only a small effort to find the best stills in these lots, and, if you have any willingness to gamble at all, you may find that you get some great stills that were not pictured! Please do NOT bid on this lot unless you can accept that you are only seeing eight of the stills.

NOTE: On rare occasions, large lots of 9 or more black-and-white stills like this one can sometimes have one or more duplicated stills, but since we only picture 8 of the stills, if there are duplicates, they are likely not pictured. We try to note when this happens, but we may not catch it every time, so please do not bid on such lots unless you can accept this possibility.

Condition: very good. One of the stills (not pictured) has a 1" tear in the lower right corner, but the other stills are in very nice condition!
