Note that there is an unusual element to this movie, which is that Elia Kazan had Warner Bros. buy the rights to this classic novel, and then he essentially junked around 90% of it, focusing on a small section of the book! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the color stills for this classic movie were printed in an unusual way. Apparently they wanted to help protect the stills, and they were created with a thin plastic coating over the face of each still. This did indeed protect the stills from damage (because it slightly increases the thickness and the plastic is resistant to stains), but I have seen several of the stills over the years where the plastic film is separating from the face of the still (and the plastic does seem to scuff a little more than regular stills do). All these color stills on East of Eden (and some other movies of this period) were created in this way. Condition: fair to good. The plastic coating is "lifting" in the lower right corner (see above). Otherwise, the still has a few pairs of staple holes in the borders. Learn More about condition grades
