Beverly Hills, CA: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer [MGM], Circa 1970. Vintage reference photograph of director Michelangelo Antonioni talking with actors Mark Frechette and Daria Halprin on location in the desert for the 1970 film. With a stamp specific to the film's French release on the verso.

Antonioni’s great American experiment, and the only film the director ever made in the United States, written for the screen by a young Sam Shepard. Though made from an Italian’s perspective, the film stands today as a great visual statement on the American West in the late 1960s, rampant consumerism, and the hippie zeitgeist.

8 x 10 inches. Near Fine.
