This is a B Camera, second take clapperboard for the Emmy-nominated TV Movie “Little Girl Lost.” The clapperboard retains the date from its last use during production [12-18-87]. This TV Movie was released on 25 Apr 1988 and stars Oscar/Golden Globe-nominated actress TESS HARPER and Oscar-nominated actor FREDERIC FORREST. The movie was directed by Emmy-winning director SHARRON MILLER who had on camera the Oscar-nominated and ASC Lifetime Achievement Award winning cinematographer PHILIP LATHROP.
