Description:
Two intage studio still photographs from the US release of the 1963 film, showing actors Brigitte Bardot, Giorgia Moll, and Jack Palance. With holograph pencil annotations on the verso regarding layout.
Based on the 1954 Italian novel "Il disprezzo" ("A Ghost at Noon") by Alberto Moravia. Director Jean-Luc Godard's lush Technicolor landmark that transformed Brigitte Bardot from a sex symbol into an art object, while simultaneously furthering his own reputation for being the most commercially successful deconstructionist in film history. A fascinating film that can be watched either as a narrative about a disintegrating relationship or as an unending series of pure cinematic references.
