Description: Steppenwolf [Hermann Hesse's Steppenwolf...For Madmen Only] (Original screenplay for the 1974 film) Author: Hermann Hesse (novel); Fred Haines (director, screenwriter); Max von Sydow, Dominique Sana (starring) Title: Steppenwolf [Hermann Hesse's Steppenwolf...For Madmen Only] (Original screenplay for the 1974 film) Publication: New York: Magic Lantern Inc, 1971 Description: Draft script for the 1974 film. Based on the 1927 novel by Hermann Hesse. A depressed half-man half-animal (played by Max von Sydow) is introduced to the hallucinogenic world of the "Magic Theater," where he seeks redemption via a metaphysical transcendence. The film took seven years of complicated pre-production to create, including building a relationship with the Hesse family in order to acquire the rights. While "Steppenwolf" is a precisely-realized film replete with Jungian symbols and created with some of the best special effects available at the time, the film has remained somewhat obscure due to problems with its marketing and distribution, including the color of the prints having been incorrectly developed.

Title page present, dated April 1971, with credits for screenwriter Fred Haines. 104 leaves, with last page of text numbered 103. Mimeograph duplication, with blue undated revision pages throughout.
