Review & premiere of "Schindler's List", in a Los Angeles newspaper...



Item # 715064

December 15, 1993

LOS ANGELES TIMES, December 15, 1993

* Best "Schindler's List" advertisement
* Steven Spielberg - Liam Neeson
* Grand Opening Day premiere


A terrific issue on the premiere of the motion picture hit "Schindler's List" and perhaps no better newspaper could be found than this, the leading newspaper from the home of the entertainment industry - the Hollywood area's prime publication.

Note: Where else might one find authentic, poster-size ads for Opening Day showings, in the most desirable Hollywood-area newspaper - as we were lucky enough to obtain this (and others) indirectly from the Los Angeles Times' own collection? It simply doesn't get any better! In over 40 years of collecting, we have yet to see such unique & dramatic coverage with truly top-shelf, eye-catching displayability (see images).

The front page of section F has a review of the film, headed: "A Stirring Departure; The Quietly Devastating 'Schindler's List' Is Atypical Speilberg" with a  related photo. The article carries over to page 8. And perhaps more significant is the terrific, full page advertisement for the film on it's opening day. (see images).
A quite rare issue as it would not have been saved since it contains no historically significant content. Present are the complete sections 1 and F only totaling 54. Great condition.
