“Lennon had attitude, and, taking his lead from Lennon, McCartney could be similar. At times, they reminded me of those well-to-do Chicago lads Leopold and Loeb, who killed someone because they felt superior to him. Lennon and McCartney were ‘superior human beings’.”

it all comes full circle

Here's an incredibly high-quality scan of the Warner Bros. Pressbook for Rope. This is honestly an insane find. 41 pages full of interesting production info, a bunch of new pictures, and the most fascinating part: WB's very elaborate suggestions for giant advertising campaigns to promote the movie. I really, really wanna know how many of these were actually used by theaters because there are so many, ranging from genius to goofy.

I highly recommend downloading the PDF and reading through the whole thing. Here are some of the highlights:

There are ads for every possible newspaper section, from sports to financials. Some of these are hilariously random and have nothing to do with the plot of the movie. Two of my personal favourites:

Then there's these absolute gems. Recreation-worthy tbh:

Just two of the many interesting featured articles. The first one explores the reasons behind using technicolor for the film, and the second gives some insight into how much rehearsal and perfection was required of the actors, in this case John Dall:
