Saboteur

Universal City: Universal Pictures, 1942. Vintage reference photograph taken on the set of the 1942 film, showing an elaborate ballroom scene, with director Alfred Hitchcock, cameraman Joseph Valentine, and actors Priscilla Lane and Robert Cummings in conversation in the foreground. With a printed mimeo snipe affixed to the verso.

A high spot among Alfred Hitchcock's early thrillers, and the director's only collaboration with author Dorothy Parker, who contributed to the screenplay. The film included much more location footage than most of the director's pictures, including Boulder Dam, locations in New York City including Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center, and of course Liberty Island for the famed closing scene on the Statue of Liberty.

10 x 8 inches. Near Fine.
