Description
Gone With the Wind Memo from Producer David O.
Selznick (1938). A memo from producer David O. Selznick to the
film's first director George Cukor regarding the casting of Ashley
Wilkes. Selznick is impressed with the actor John Paige in this
memo dated September 26, 1938, asking Cukor to watch Paige's screen
test.
"JOHN PAIGE (Ashley candidate)...I saw a test of John Paige who has
been suggested for Ashley. I thought he was quite good, even though
I recognized that the power was really in the scene. However, since
Paige has been highly recommended, I should appreciate your seeing
the test (and, possibly Paige) and checking my opinion. /
D.O.S."
Memo on letterhead from Selznick International Pictures, Inc.
Measures 8.5" x 5.5", with some pencil shorthand writing at bottom.
