eMoviePoster.comThis Week's Cool Item: This Freedom pressbookReturn to Cool Item of the Week Archive Added: 10/26/2020 As many of you know, I, Bruce Hershenson, owner of eMoviePoster.com, have collected pressbooks (and related movie paper like studio yearbooks) for over 30 years, and I have the world's foremost collection of such material. I thought I would share one item with you this week, the type of items you almost surely have never seen before, and which might not come up for sale for DECADES! This week, I have the pressbook from This Freedom, the 1923 Denison Clift silent feminist romantic melodrama ("William Fox presents the motion picture version of A.S.M. Hutchinson's novel"; "Can a wife win freedom and happiness and disregard her home duties?"; "Most widely discussed novel of the year!") starring Fay Compton, Clive Brook, John Stuart, Athene Seyler, and Nancy Kenyon. How ahead of its time was this movie? It would be decades before wives were able to "disregard their home duties"! Here is an image of the pressbook's covers and an interior two-page spread: As part of our bi-weekly club email, I will showcase a different pressbook (or related item) from my collection (so in just 20,000 weeks or so, I will have shared the entire collection with you!). And remember to check out our previous Cool Items in our Cool Item of the Week archive (which is fully searchable!).
