About This Item

Beverly Hills CA: Spectator International. Very Good+. 1965. (Vol. 2, No. 5). Periodical. [nice clean copy, but slightly wrinkled as though it might have absorbed a little moisture at some time (but NOT stained or damaged apart from the wrinkling]. (B&W photographs) The last issue of this magazine to appear under the guidance of its original editor, James Silke (who would be suceeded by Curtis Hanson beginning with the next issue), and like many of its predecessors it's kind of a mishmash, reflecting the publication's fitful efforts to find its footing during its first couple of years. There's some serious cineaste-y content here, including: interviews with directors Richard Brooks and Serge Bourguignon (themed around their then-current films LORD JIM and THE REWARD); a piece by critic Raymond Durgnat on serials; a "Point of View" column by not-yet-a-director Peter Bogdanovich (in which he writes about Sam Fuller's THE NAKED KISS and reviews Josef von Sternberg's autobiography); serious-minded interviews with Anthony Perkins, Richard Harris, and Richard Widmark; and an appreciation of the 1932 film THE MUMMY. However, this particular issue also leans rather heavily on the pretty-ladies formula, including a full-page inside-front-cover shot of Jeanne Moreau and Brigitte Bardot yukking it up, a 7-page photo feature, "The Girls," highlighting "seven young Hollywood beauties who rival Europe's best" (which resembles nothing so much as a Playboy "Girls of" spread, but in black-and-white and without the nudity), and a photo-heavy 15-page survey of current European and American cinema, again focused largely on the actresses (with more than a little cheesecake). .
