Important Added Info: Note that included with this script is a signed 2-page letter from David Foster of Warner Bros. to Paul Kohner, telling him he has bought the script and wants to know why Bronson and Ireland rejected it. Also included is a 1-page review of the script by an employee of Paul Kohner's saying that he "dislikes it intensely" and at the bottom are handwritten comments from Paul Kohner, with his initials, saying "do you see anything in this?". Note that this script is from August 7, 1975 and the screenplay was written by Alan Michael Swyer! 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.
