Capra signs a contract with United Artists to get a copy of Pocketful of Miracles... his own movie
Contract signed "Frank Capra" in red ink with "Dean Stolber", Senior Vice President at United Artists Corporation. 2 pages, 8½x11, on United Artists Corporation letterhead. April 30, 1979. Capra signed this contract in order to obtain a 16mm print of his last film, 1961's Pocketful of Miracles. The contract lasted five years and was to be automatically extended for additional five-year periods at its end. It allowed Capra to own and show the movie for his private, personal library use only. Capra (1897-1991), born in Sicily, was the winner of three Best Director Academy Awards for It Happened One Night (1934), Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936) and You Can't Take It With You (1938). He enjoyed total creative freedom on his sets and also directed, among other films, Lost Horizon (1937), Meet John Doe (1941) and It's A Wonderful Life (1946). Capra was the first Hollywood director to have his name precede a film's title. Lightly toned. Staple holes in upper right corner. Contract has been folded in thirds and unfolded. Otherwise in fine condition.
