Description
Original 20th Century-Fox Scene Lobby Cards (11x14). Six Cards Fine plus condition.
Original 20th Century-Fox Scene Lobby Cards(11x14) for the Elia Kazan anti-Semitism drama, GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT (1947) starring Gregory Peck, Dorothy McGuire, John Garfield, and Celeste Holm. Six individual cards are presented in this group. In this excellent screenplay by Moss Hart, a reporter (Peck) pretends to be Jewish in order to cover a story about anti-Semitism, and in the process he personally discovers the true depths of bigotry and hatred. Very few films confront bigotry as intelligently as this one, because it confronts the unspoken, insensitive attitudes of the many rather than the violent and outrageous acts of a few. A "gentleman's agreement" is made without writing or even speech and refers to the many bigots who unthinkingly assume their prejudices are universally accepted. The film was nominated for eight Academy Awards and won three Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director to Kazan, and Best Supporting Actress to Holm. We have graded these cards in fine plus condition general theater use; colors are vivid. If you inquire we can send you individual photos of each card. MovieArt Austin guarantees these six cards to be vintage, authentic 20th Century Fox lobby cards from this film. MovieArt Austin will sell NO reproductions.
