Auction History Result 7x281 FRANCES presskit w/ 14 stills '82 Jessica Lange as cult actress Frances Farmer, Sam Shepard! Date Sold 5/11/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Presskit (measures approximately 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; contains 7 supplements, and 14 stills) (Learn More) Frances, the 1982 Graeme Clifford ultra-depressing biography ("Her story is shocking, disturbing, compelling...and True." ...almost. See the note below; of cult 1930s actress Frances Farmer) starring Jessica Lange (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; in the title role as Frances Farmer), Jonathan Banks, Bonnie Bartlett, James Brodhead, Sam Shepard, Anjelica Huston, and Kim Stanley (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film). Note that Frances Farmer is a legendary actress of the 1930s, partly for her great beauty and acting talent, and partly due to her great personal troubles, which resulted in her being institutionalized. A few years ago, I was informed by researcher Jeffrey Kauffman that the story of her being lobotomized is actually an urban legend! This myth was spread in a book and movie of Farmer's life, and it will be difficult to ever convince people that it is not true. In any event, Farmer was an extremely beautiful and talented actress, and original movie posters and lobby cards from her movies are highly sought after by collectors, but few are ever offered for sale! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have taken a picture of the cover of the presskit and eight of the stills (less than eight if the presskit has less than eight stills, of course). We have noted if the presskit contains any supplements, but we do not picture them. All of the presskits are sealed and ready to be sent, and we cannot answer any questions about the contents, especially about what any stills we may have not pictured show. REMEMBER TO LOOK AT THE TOP OF THIS AUCTION TO SEE HOW MANY STILLS ARE INCLUDED WITH THIS PRESSKIT, BECAUSE WE NEVER PICTURE MORE THAN EIGHT OF THEM (and we pretty much picked eight stills at random). Condition: very good to fine. Many of the presskits we are auctioning this week were carefully stored away for many years, and the stills are in really excellent condition. Sometimes the folder that contains the stills has some minor wear on it, and you should be able to see that in our super-sized image. Learn More about condition grades
