Signed lobby card for Kidnapped, shown in the grass with Sue England
Lobby Card signed: "Roddy/McDowall". Color, 14x11. Shown with Sue England in lobby
card for Kidnapped (1948). 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. Creases in all corners. Minor tear in lower margin. Otherwise fine condition.
