“… a culture of ‘Rag-Dolls’…” 1981 Press Kit, Denmark

This was sold to me as a Press Kit, but it looks to me more like the AFD Campaign Pressbook in intent, as it has a list of available promotional materials on the back. Theater owners might have a use for that, the press wouldn’t. The Danish publicity for Times

This was sold as a “Press Kit,” but it’s just the one sheet of A4-size paper with a very complete synopsis of the film on one side and the full cast and credits on the other. It was definitely used for publicity purposes in the UK, but the logo on

    The last photos from the press kit. To the left, Pammy and Nicky on the roof from which they toss their first television set, although here Nicky appears to be translating a radio broadcast for Pammy. Nothing like this occurs in the film; this photo, however, will be

  On the left is the same photo as this one, cropped differently and of course without the autograph. On the right is the photo that may be the one used the most to promote the film. We’ll have a better idea about that once I’m done with all this

“Times Square… introduces Robin Johnson, dynamic 16-year-old Brooklyn actress and singer in her film debut.” Okay, forget what I said last time about posting the pictures in the order they occur in the film. There are too many without Robin in them to do it in a way that I
