Signed 'Amadeus' Shooting Script (1984)

This item is a physical copy of the shooting script for the Academy Award-winning 1984 film 'Amadeus,' with a screenplay by Peter Shaffer based on his own play. The script is bound with a black plastic spiral (comb) spine, featuring a plain white cardstock cover. The front cover displays the title, writer attribution, and the designation "Shooting Script, 1984" in a standard typewriter-style Courier font, characteristic of industry-standard screenplays of that era. Most significantly, the cover features a prominent bold signature in black ink, which appears to be that of the film's director, Miloš Forman. The ink exhibits a slight sheen and variation in line weight consistent with a felt-tip marker or Sharpie application. The script appears to be standard letter size (8.5 x 11 inches). Regarding condition, the paper shows minor handling wear and a slight off-white aging, but remains in very good overall condition with no visible tears, heavy stains, or significant creasing. The signature is clear and dark, showing no signs of fading from light exposure. The spiral binding is intact with no broken teeth. This piece serves as a significant artifact of 1980s cinema history, representing a critical production document for a Best Picture winner.
