Re: [MOPO] my WANT LIST - The Third Man
Dr. David, I cannot agree more. One of the best films ever. This is the reason I love films. Masterpiece There is also a museum in Vienna dedicated to this film only!!! Philipp Sent via BlackBerry by ATT -Original Message- From: David Kusumoto [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2007 19:23:43 To:MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] my WANT LIST - The Third Man Michael -- Your list allows me to address an historical nitpick that has nagged me for years. All of the titles on your latest want list (vs. those you've posted in the past) -- are considered country of origin U.S.A. productions -- EXCEPT -- The Third Man. While The Third Man has American actors Joseph Cotten and Orson Welles -- it is considered, even by historians -- to be a BRITISH film. The U.K. is the country of first issue and U.K. posters in all formats -- even international posters distributed by Lion International U.K. in 1949-1950 -- are considered more scarce than their USA counterparts. Some argue the art on the British posters is also superior and moodier, dominated by an abstract silhouette of Orson Welles' character. Selznick got co-production credit with Alexander Korda for The Third Man and had USA distribution rights for its USA release. But it world premiered at Cannes and in the U.K. in September 1949 -- and was released in six other countries BEFORE it was finally released in the USA -- five months later, in February 1950. Selznick then changed the film's title to The 3rd Man (who knows why) -- and horribly altered the tone of the original beginning of Carol Reed's film. The Criterion Collection offers a side-by-side comparison of the two versions and restores the film as originally released, the result being a magnificent opening featuring a colorful voice over by Reed -- that Selznick slashed. In my view, the U.K. version of this film is hands down better than the USA version. In sum, The Third Man is a London Film Productions / British Lion Film Corporation effort first -- and a Selznick USA film a distant second. This is likely the main reason The Third Man shows up #1 on the British Film Institute's list of the 100 greatest films ever made. Interestingly, The Third Man fared no better than #57 in the corresponding list issued by the AFI in 1998 -- and dropped OFF ENTIRELY in 2007. The Third Man is unlike other films by British directors, e.g., Hitchcock and David Lean -- whose country of first issue films (and their posters), post-1939 and 1955, were in the U.S.A., e.g., Rebecca, Bridge on the River Kwai, etc. -david in san diego. = Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2007 17:06:51 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: my WANT LIST To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU my Want List just shrunk by one: just received MR.

With less than one day to go, there are still 170 posters at 99 cents, and 300 under $3 each! There are 600 under $10, and most of those over $10 each are still WAY under the prices you would expect to see them at on almost any dealers' website! Be sure to check out our 929 TUESDAY ITEMS on eBay (on our emovieposter.com account) sometime BEFORE they end TOMORROW Tuesday, November 20th, beginning around 7 PM CST and also be sure to check out our 299 THURSDAY items on eBay (on our movieposter account) sometime BEFORE they end Thursday November 22nd, beginning around 7 PM CST (either by going to http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php for our Tuesday items or by going to http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php for our Thursday items, or by using the link from our HOME page, http://www.emovieposter.com or by finding us by our eBay user ID, emovieposter.com). We feel certain that if you purchase even one of them and then once you see how honestly we describe them and how we charge only the actual shipping cost and how we send them right out promptly and well-packed, that you will declare your independence from those auction houses with the outrageous buyers premiums, the over-graded items, the misleading images that obscure defects, and the outrageous shipping!

Re: [MOPO] Economy affecting the dealers?
Ron, I know there were times when I was really, really strapped and would see a poster on eBay I had to throw a bid on. Sometimes you just have to have it... Glenn - Original Message - From: Ron Moore To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Monday, November 19, 2007 10:34 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] Economy affecting the dealers? Hi Glenn and Rich! I find things to be a bit different. While I do have a number of clients in the entertainment industry, I believe the vast majority of collectors are not in the biz but are just fans of movies. So although Rich's business may have been affected by the strike, mine certainly hasn't. Also, as far as Heritage goes, I think Rich may be exaggerating slightly about who their clientele are. While everyone focuses on the handfull of posters that sold for substantial amounts of money- which makes it easy to say that they cater to the wealthy- you have to remember that there were over 1300 lots in the sale with something for everyone. All various genres and price ranges were represented. I know a number of people that won items and they are regular folks with regular jobs. They would not be considered super-wealthy and some of the items that were sold were true bargains. I don't think the economy has truly affected our hobby yet. And just to go one step further, I've also noticed over the years that when we have had some recessions (like back in 1986 or so), people still wanted their toys. They may have been late on their rent, but they had to have their posters. Maybe the pleasure their collectibles brought took their minds off of their troubles for a short while.

Hi Glenn and Rich! I find things to be a bit different. While I do have a number of clients in the entertainment industry, I believe the vast majority of collectors are not in the biz but are just fans of movies. So although Rich's business may have been affected by the strike, mine certainly hasn't. Also, as far as Heritage goes, I think Rich may be exaggerating slightly about who their clientele are. While everyone focuses on the handfull of posters that sold for substantial amounts of money- which makes it easy to say that they cater to the wealthy- you have to remember that there were over 1300 lots in the sale with something for everyone. All various genres and price ranges were represented. I know a number of people that won items and they are regular folks with regular jobs. They would not be considered super-wealthy and some of the items that were sold were true bargains. I don't think the economy has truly affected our hobby yet. And just to go one step further, I've also noticed over the years that when we have had some recessions (like back in 1986 or so), people still wanted their toys. They may have been late on their rent, but they had to have their posters. Maybe the pleasure their collectibles brought took their minds off of their troubles for a short while.

I think you've provided me with the answer.

Glenn when the Hollywood writer's strike then the Broadway stagehands strike began.. all business for us dried up like a grape in the sun I hope they get back to work soon so we can all eat of course ona serious side.. what Heritage did is to a wealthy market and does not reflect anything the rest of the market is where you see truth and if 90% of the people aren't making enough money.. well collectibles are certainly at the bottom of the shopping list Rich At 05:35 PM 11/19/2007, Glenn Taranto wrote: I've been hearing that the economy is starting to affect eBay. The Heritage auction seems to have seen some above average prices. Are people just sick of eBay or have any of the dealers on the list also seen signs of slowing? Glenn T.
