Description: Joseph Cotten Signed 10 x 13 1/2 Magazine Movie Ad !!! in very good condition - 1945 "Love Letters" with Jennifer JonesSIGNED " Joseph Cotten " This was one of the first movies Hal Wallis produced after leaving Warner Bros. for Paramount in 1944. He originally envisioned Gregory Peck to star opposite Jones, but Peck felt Love Letters, with its amnesia theme, was too similar to his just-completed Spellbound (1945). Wallis decided to go with Joseph Cotten instead and got in touch with David Selznick, to whom both Cotten and Jones were under contract. Selznick agreed to the loan-outs under several conditions: that Selznick retain approval of Jones's hair, makeup and costumes; that Jones receive top billing over Cotten; that Jones be paid $100,000, a big sum in those days; and that shooting be wrapped by Jan. 1, 1945, so that Jones would be ready to start filming Duel in the Sun (1946). Even after Wallis agreed, Selznick never stopped bothering him with further memos and notes, "as if Love Letters were Selznick's movie." (Bernard Dick, Hal Wallis). The hassle was worth it. Love Letters was a success and Jones received her third of four consecutive Oscar® nominations. (She lost to Joan Crawford in Mildred Pierce.) She would receive a fifth nomination a decade later. Love Letters also captured nominations for Best Score, Best Song, and Best Black-and-White Art Direction.
