Auction History Result 9s207 RIOT 15 8x10 stills '69 Jim Brown escapes from jail, ugliest prison riot in history! Date Sold 8/23/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 15 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Riot, the 1969 Buzz Kulik jail prison escape crime thriller ("Cully- Fletcher- Kelly- Mary- Surefoot- Grossman-"; "They exploded the ugliest riot in prison history to cover their dangerous, desperate break for freedom."; "Based upon "The Riot" by Frank Elli"; produced by William Castle) starring Jim Brown, Gene Hackman, Mike Kellin, Gerald S. O'Loughlin, Ben Carruthers, Clifford David, and "featuring inmates of Arizona State Prison". Note that there is a real mystery about this movie. We have auctioned stills from it that have captions on the back indicating that they were taken by photographer Lawrence Schiller, and several of them show "inmate/actor" Frenchie Wooten, who is a 24 year old who was "serving a 15 year sentence for killing a homosexual within the walls of the prison", and it also states that "Frenchie has been granted the second largest role in the movie". Yet, Frenchie Wooten is not billed as being in the movie, and there is nothing about him on the Internet. The only thing we can imagine is that the movie was being filmed with Wooten, but that when news of this came out, people (likely friends and relatives of the murdered man) objected to his being in the movie, and apparently his lines were completely removed from the movie, although it seems he is still in the prison scenes. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that one or more of these stills has an image of artwork created specifically for this movie. Such stills are far more rare than stills which show scenes from the movie! SUPER IMPORTANT! THOUGH ONLY EIGHT OF THE STILLS ARE PICTURED, THE HIGH BIDDER ON THIS LOT WILL RECEIVE 15 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. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
