Early Draft script for the 1967 film, seen here under the working title "Point Blank!" The lead character, named Parker here (as he was in the novel), was renamed Walker in the finished film (the role played by Lee Marvin). A foundational crime film of the late 1960s, setting the stage for the New Hollywood era. A blunt, unapologetic, nihilistic work, one of the gems of early neo-noir, with touches of French New Wave. Viewers and critics have often questioned whether or not the film is really a dream that its protagonist has after he is shot in the very beginning. Director John Boorman claims to not have an opinion on the matter, and has said that the film is about the lead character's brutalizing experiences in World War II that had dehumanized him and left him desperately searching for his humanity. The film's oblique final sequence, wherein Parker/Walker realizes he has been unknowingly eliminating the competition for a shadowy figure who now wishes to hire him, was not developed at this stage of the script's history. The ending instead adheres more closely to that of the novel.

Vintage color reference photograph of Sean Connery and Sara Kestlman from the 1974 film. After the critical and commercial success of 1972's "Deliverance," director John Boorman was given almost total creative freedom for his next film. He responded by costuming Sean Connery in red briefs and suspenders, thigh-high boots, a handlebar mustache, and a long braid, and setting him loose in a utopian city of nearly catatonically bored immortals as a ruthless killer doing the violent bidding of a giant, floating, talking stone head. In his spare time, he woos and has a child with Charlotte Rampling. Somewhat obviously, the film has since become a cult classic. Shot on location in Ireland. 10 x 8 inches. Near Fine. Arrow 1147.…

Three striking vintage photographs from the 1972 film, picturing variously director John Boorman, cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond, Jon Voight, and others working on location along the Cahulawassee River in Georgia, the setting for most of the film. A seminal entry in the early days of the New Hollywood cinema movement. As with "Point Blank" in 1967, British director John Boorman demonstrated a stunning instinct for American idioms and even American cultural undercurrents. And perhaps most importantly of all, he had the stuff required to order the book's author James Dickey off the set. The photograph with Zsigmond, Boorman, and Voight is in a custom museum-quality frame, archivally mounted, with UV glass. The other two photographs accompany the set, and are unframed. All 3 photographs 8 x 10 inches, one photograph with a snipe at the verso, the other two with brief text at the bottom margin.…

Vintage one sheet poster for the 1967 film. Based on the 1963 novel "The Hunter" by Donald E. Westlake. An unapologetic, nihilistic work, one of the gems of early neo-noir and a foundational late 1960s crime film, setting the stage for the New Hollywood era.

Director John Boorman claims to not have an opinion on the matter, and has said that the film is about the lead character's dehumanizing experiences during World War II.
