MANDY

Original 10 inch x 8 inch Still of PHYLLIS CALVERT & TERENCE MORGAN in the 1952 Alexander Mackendrick Drama MANDY, adapted from her novel “The Day Is Ours” by Hilda Lewis with a screenplay by Nigel Balchin.

Sandwiched between two pairs of comedies, Mandy (1952) was the only ‘serious’ work of the five films Alexander Mackendrick directed at Ealing Studios. A powerful and affecting drama about a deaf child and her parents’ attempts to come to terms with her condition, it is remarkably free of the sentimentality which might so easily have weakened its impact..

The still is in good condition with creasing and a half inch tear at the bottom.
