McDowall". Color 14x11 card © 1966 Seven Arts Associated Corp. The
arrival of London-born McDowall (1928-1998) in Hollywood came when he
tested for the juvenile lead in Fox's How Green Was My Valley (1941),
winning both the role and a long contract. McDowall's first adult acting
assignment was as Malcolm in Orson Welles' 1948 film version of Macbeth.
The actor spent the better part of the early 1960s playing Octavian in the
mammoth production Cleopatra, co-starring with longtime friend
Elizabeth Taylor. An accomplished photographer, McDowall was honored by having
his photos of Taylor and other celebrities frequently published in the leading
magazines of the era. McDowall's most frequent assignments between 1968 and
1975 found him in elaborate simian makeup in the Planet of the Apes
theatrical films and TV series. Shortly before his death, the Academy of
Motion Pictures named its photo archive after him. Corners creased. Adhesive
residue at upper corners. Margins toned. Minor surface creases. Otherwise fine
condition.
