An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Teaser One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Rose, the 1979 Mark Rydell fictional rock 'n' roll biographical melodrama ("She gave... And gave... And gave. Until she had nothing left to give."; "A love story with music"; "Story by Bill Kerby"; "Screenplay by Bill Kerby and Bo Goldman"; "A love story with music"; note that the movie is clearly loosely based on the life of legendary female rock & roll music artist Janis Joplin, although that was not officially acknowledged!) starring Bette Midler (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; "Her first motion picture"; in the title role as Mary Rose Foster), Alan Bates, Frederic Forrest (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Harry Dean Stanton, Barry Primus, David Keith, and Sandra McCabe. Note that the original story this movie was based on was written by Marvin Worth and Michael Cimino, who worked on this AFTER making "The Deer Hunter". Bill Kerby then wrote a draft based on Cimino's story, and then Cimino and Bo Goldman together wrote a new draft, but finally, the script was rewritten by Bo Goldman alone, and they ended up giving screen credit as shown in our quote credits above, and Cimino's name was left off entirely!

Note that all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson. Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since! But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world! Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions! As noted above, all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I come from this more remarkable collection (the 28 that do not were consigned to us by other collectors, and are clearly marked). This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled! Note that this one-sheet is from the category that Dominique Besson collected on that he labeled "Musical". Condition: good to very good. There are some creases and scuffs scattered in the lower quarter of the poster. It is otherwise in generally nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
