"The Cherokee Historical Association welcomes visitors from every part of the world, in the sincere hope that in this absorbing drama of America's past every traveler may come to understand more than ever the importance of common labor toward a common high goal, of unity and brotherhood not only between men but also between nations. The theme of Unto These Hills is peculiarly appropriate to the world of today. As the temper of a nation changes and moves in various new directions to meet new problems, there is no better place to look for understanding and clarity than the past, where the temper of the present was born." ----- from the Introduction.…

Front wrapper and presumably the title page, first cast of characters page missing, and first page of 'Bits' missing, but the screenplay is complete. Ex-Murphy J. Bennett, Road Manager of Sammy Davis Jr. Enduring less as a work of narrative craft than as a document of 20th century star power at its most concentrated, Ocean's Eleven gathered five of the era's most recognizable entertainers on a single soundstage, playing thinly fictionalized versions of the ease and camaraderie audiences already associated with the Rat Pack itself. The film's premise, a heist run by former Army buddies against five Las Vegas casinos on New Year's Eve, functioned above all as a vehicle: a frame loose enough to let Sinatra, Martin, Davis, Lawford, and the rest occupy the screen as themselves, trading dialogue with the same practiced chemistry that made their live performances the hottest ticket in the city they were simultaneously filming in. This script, dated three weeks before principal photography began, translated that famous act into a feature film. Six decades on, the film remains a fixture of American popular culture less for what happens in it than for who is on screen while it happens, five stars at the height of their fame. Set in California and Las Vegas, and filmed on set at Warner Brother's Studios in Burbank, and on location in Los Angeles and at various hotel casinos in Las Vegas.…
