A Fish Called Wanda, the 1988 Charles Crichton (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) English/U.S. crime comedy ("A New Comedy About Sex, Murder and Seafood."; "A tale of murder, greed, lust, revenge and seafood."; "The not entirely serious story of one fish and several dirty rats"; "Story by John Cleese & Charles Crichton"; "Here's some fish you won't find on your menu!"; "C.O.D. - strictly cash on delivery for the man who has it all and wants more"; "Your 'plaice' or mine? The perfect meal for two"; "The cheap 'skate' for those with limited funds but the means to get them"; "The complete 'fish cake' ideal with chips"; "Enjoy your meal, it'll give you a taste for the film."; about a bunch of crooks who can't quite get along and a disgruntled lawyer who falls in love with sexy Curtis) starring John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis (in the title role as Wanda Gershwitz), Kevin Kline (winner of the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Michael Palin, Cynthia Cleese, Maria Aitken, Tom Georgeson, Patricia Hayes, and Geoffrey Palmer

Important Added Info: Note that this transparency has "Kill Kline" written in grease pencil on the sleeve. This almost surely indicates that Kevin Kline did not like this image and told the studio not to use it or publish it (he seems to be at an odd angle, which would likely be his objection!).

Note that this is a "studio-issued" transparency that was produced by the studio but is not the camera original. What is a transparency? They are produced by the studio and are very high quality and were created in quantity and sent to media outlets or other places that had need of the very highest quality image for reproduction purposes (in newspapers, magazines, or elsewhere). A clear border around a 4x5 transparency denotes duplication from a negative source, a black border denotes duplication from a positive source. This transparency is in a plastic sleeve (but we removed it and scanned it, so that bidders could see just how high quality it is). It will be sent to the winner of the auction in the sleeve.

Condition: very good.
