Titanic"), the classic 1958 (released in the U.S. in 1959) Roy Ward Baker English sinking ship disaster thriller ("Titanic ... in spectacle... realism!"; "Unforgettable! Breathtaking! Brilliant!"; "Told as it really happened"; "A new motion picture never before seen on screen or television"; "Titanic... The greatest sea-drama in living memory"; "The Rank Organisation presents with pride Kenneth More in A Night To Remember"; "From the book by Walter Lord"; about the sinking of the Titanic, the James Cameron "Titanic" borrowed heavily from this movie; Screenplay by Eric Ambler) starring Kenneth More, Ronald Allen, Robert Ayres, Honor Blackman, Anthony Bushell, and James Dyrenforth. Note that the recent discovery that the Titanic broke into three pieces and not two casts severe doubt on the sequence of events of the sinking as portrayed in this movie and several others. It now seems far more likely that the ship sank in a very short period of time, and that the passengers had little chance to perform any of the things they are shown doing in the various movie adaptations of this tragic event! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut! Condition: very good, NO CUTS. The pressbook is complete and uncut and it is folded across the middle. Learn More about condition grades
