An Original 1949 (from the first release of this movie in Denmark) Vintage Theatrical Danish Movie Program (measures 5" x 8" [13 x 20 cm]; 12 pages) (Learn More) The Red Shoes, the classic 1948 (released in the U.S. in 1948 in a very limited release, and then in a wider release in 1949, and then in a very wide release in 1950!) Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger English dance ballet romantic melodrama ("... Dance she did, and dance she must between her two loves."; "There has never been a motion picture like 'The Red Shoes'"; "There have never been reviews as wonderful as these..."; "Winner of three Academy Awards"; "Written, Produced and Directed by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen) starring Anton Walbrook, Marius Goring, Moira Shearer, Robert Helpmann, Ludmilla Tcherina, and Leonide Massine ("The part of The Shoemaker created and danced by Leonide Massine"). Note that Shearer did not want to make this movie, because of how difficult it would be for her to perform the many dance scenes, and it took Powell and Pressburger more than a year to convince her to make it! Also note that this movie won Academy Awards for art direction and music scoring, and it is widely considered to be one of the movies that made the best use of three-strip Technicolor. Also note that this movie includes a scene of the dancers outdoors by tall buildings, and it was too costly to film that scene outdoors, so that scene was done with the judicious use of matte paintings! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that most Danish programs from after around 1948 measured approximately 4 3/4" x 6". However, most of the ones from before that time were a larger size (usually around 5 3/4" x 8") and usually had a lot more pages than those from after 1948 (however, some of the ones made during World War II are a smaller size and have few pages, no doubt due to paper shortages). In addition, most of the "pre-War" Danish programs are FAR more rare than programs from after World War II, no doubt because they were destroyed during the huge paper shortages during World War II. Also note that we have pictured the front and back covers and an interior 2-page spread from this program. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
