Photo Overview
Oskar Werner as Guy Montag sits at breakfast in his apartment in a studio scene from François Truffaut’s Fahrenheit 451, issued by Universal Pictures in 1966. This glossy 8x10 inch black?and?white studio press photograph was printed in the USA and carries the original studio caption on the back; the scene was shot in England for the film’s production.
Fahrenheit 451 was Truffaut’s only English?language feature, adapted from Ray Bradbury’s landmark 1953 dystopian novel. Werner, an acclaimed Austrian actor, earned an Academy Award nomination for Ship of Fools and won a Golden Globe for The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, while co?star Julie Christie had just won an Oscar for Darling and starred in Doctor Zhivago. Own an iconic mid?1960s sci?fi Movie still with direct studio provenance—scarce originals like this move quickly, so secure it now.
Print analysis: Studio snipe with complete credits, U.S. printed border copyright line dated 1966, and newsroom edit marks indicate an original mid?release studio publicity still. Printed within the year of the film’s release, this fits a Type 1 original press photograph.
Condition: In very good to excellent vintage condition. Some of the movie photos in this collection have editorial markings from being used in actual press releases at the time of the movie release. Some photos may have some slight curling due to age. Please see photos for scans of the surface to get a sense of the precise condition.
