The Wild Heart (also released as "Gypsy Blood"; this is the re-edited version of "Gone to Earth" which was filmed in 1950), the 1952 Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger English/U.S. romantic tragic melodrama ("LOST to a love she was helpless to resist! ... Jennifer Jones in a performance as memorable as those she gave in 'DUEL IN THE SUN', and 'SONG OF BERNADETTE'."; "A performance as memorable as those she gave in 'The Song of Bernadette' and Duel In The Sun'."; "Alexander Korda presents a production of The Archers"; "Lost to a love without question!... The fire of 'Duel in the Sun'; the grandeur of 'Song of Bernadette'."; "Written, Produced and Directed by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger"; based on the novel by Mary Webb; about a beautiful girl who lives in the woods and befriends animals and has a beloved pet fox, and she meets a local squire who unfortunately organizes fox hunts, which kind of guarantees their romance is doomed) starring Jennifer Jones, David Farrar, Cyril Cusack, Sybil Thorndike, and Edward Chapman. Note that two of the greatest people in film history clashed on the making of this movie! The original version in 1950 was called "Gone to Earth", and producer David O. Selznick was distressed to see that his beautiful young wife Jennifer Jones did not have nearly as much screen time as he wished! That led to a court battle between Powell and Selznick, and ultimately, the movie was re-edited and re-released two years later as "The Wild Heart", retaining only two-thirds of the original movie, with the added one-third including many close-ups of Jennifer Jones!

Important Added Info:

Note that all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson.

Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since!

But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world!

Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions!

As noted above, all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I come from this more remarkable collection (the 28 that do not were consigned to us by other collectors, and are clearly marked).

This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones).

This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled!

Note that this one-sheet is from the category that Dominique Besson collected on that he labeled "British Cinema".
