An Original Vintage Script (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm], 129 pages) (Learn More) Pie Face, the 1962 movie script written by Tom Waldman and Frank Waldman. Frank Waldman was a screenwriter who started out very promisingly writing the screenplay for "Bathing Beauty" and "Our Hearts Were Growing Up" in 1944 and 1946. But then, he completely disappeared (as far as we could find), and reappeared in 1955, when he started writing TV screenplays with his brother Tom. They wrote quite a bit for TV and then they made the acquaintance of Blake Edwards, and they did much work together, writing the screenplays for The Party, and a number of the Inspector Clouseau Pink Panther movies. We are currently auctioning six bound volumes of Frank Waldman's screenplays (in six separate auctions) and they are from the early 1960s and a few from later in the 1960s, and we believe that they are all screenplays he wrote that never made it to production, and likely Mr. Waldman had them bound, because he was proud of his work and wanted it preserved, even though it was unproduced! In the case of THIS screenplay, it made it further than the other ones we are auctioning in separate auctions, because this one is an actual MGM script, indicating that MGM purchased it from the Waldmans (and on the first interior page of the script is a note from Blake Edwards "to the production department" about how the movie should be filmed to make it look like a silent movie, so we imagine Blake Edwards was intended to be the director of this unproduced movie)! Also bound in this volume is a second script called "Gun Glory", but this is NOT the 1957 feature film of that name, and this script was written by Frank Waldman and Harold Shumate. If anyone knows more about the Waldmans (especially why they did not writing we can find for nine years), or about this specific script, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that this script is from August 6, 1962 and the screenplay was written by Tom Waldman & Frank Waldman. "FRANK WALDMAN" and the name of the movie is embossed in gold foil on the leather cover of the script. Condition: very good to fine. The cover of the second script has staining in the bottom right blank corner that was there before it was bound in, but otherwise, both scripts and the binding are in nice condition. See our multiple images to get a good sense of the exact condition of this script. Learn More about condition grades
