Charles Brabant, Marcello Pagliero (director)
Jean-Paul Sartre (play)

Barbara Laage, Ivan Desny, Walter Bryant (starring)

N.p. Artes Films, 1952. Collection of eight vintage studio still photographs from the 1952 French film. Mimeo snipe affixed to the versos of four stills. Based on Jean-Paul Sartre's 1946 play, "The Respectful Prostitute."

A racially charged film, based on the play which caused Sartre to be deemed "anti-American" for its incisive critique of racism in America. A prostitute is compelled to testify against an innocent African American in a murder cover-up.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus. Light ware and curling overall, scattered manuscript ink and pencil annotations to the versos.
