Field Of Dreams (Shoeless Joe)  Don Perri's Personal Production Scripts
Field Of Dreams (Shoeless Joe) Don Perri's Personal Production Scripts - One of the most important, yet totally "unsung heroes" of any film is the title designer. From the original image that permeates all ads and lures one into the theater, to the opening of the film, which sets the mood for the next two hours, these designers truly hold in their talented hands the fate of a film, and can create eternal classics by their artwork. Saul Bass was the legendary God of title design, and taking his reigns was the equally legendary Dan Perri, whose list of over 400 films literally reads like the list of the greatest and most popular groundbreaking films of the 20th and 21st century, including "Star Wars", "The Exorcist", "Taxi Driver", "All the President's Men", "Marathon Man", " Airplane!", "Caddyshack", "Raging Bull", "Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Gangs of New York", to name just a few! This is Perri's personal production script for what was to become the classic beloved "Field of Dreams", which he also created the title design for. It is a rare early draft production screenplay when the film was still using the original title of the book it was based upon: "Shoeless Joe". Perri has signed the script, both on the title page, and the first page of the screenplay. There are also his own personal notes throughout the script, used to inspire him to create the images for the titles. Note that there is signs of wear and aging on the signed title page and "patina" on the script pages.
