About This Item
N.p.: N.p., 1948. Vintage reference photograph from the set of the 1948 film, showing director Alfred Hitchcock mapping out a scene with actors Farley Granger, Joan Chandler, and John Dall. With a printed mimeo snipe affixed to the verso, along with several archival stamps and an address label.
Based on Patrick Hamilton's 1929 play, which was in turn based on a murder committed by Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb in 1924. Two young men living together in a New York apartment decide to kill their former classmate to prove their intellectual and aesthetic superiority. As they grow increasingly daring and proud of their "perfect murder," their close friends and associates begin to suspect something is awry. Hitchcock's first Technicolor feature, one of the director's most experimental films, now rightfully considered an undisputed classic.
Set in New York.
8 x 10 inches. Near Fine.
