Mona Lisa

London: HandMade Films, 1986. Vintage borderless photograph from the 1986 film, showing director Jordan and star Hoskins together on location. With manuscript annotations on the verso.

Hoskins stars as a recently released ex-con hired to drive a high class escort from job to job, slowly falling in love with her as he does, which leads trouble for them both. Hoskins won Best Actor at Cannes, where the film was also nominated for the Palme d'Or, and was nominated for an Academy Award, losing to Paul Newman in "The Color of Money."

Set and shot on location in London and Brighton (where this photograph was likely taken).

10 x 8 inches. Fine.
