WALTER-FILM000892No binding. Very Good. Fine Art Print Vintage original 8 1/2 x 11 1/2"" 21 x 29 cm. duo-tone herald 4 page USA. Bette Davis George Arliss Theodore Newton Hardi Albright dir: John G. Adolfi; Warner Brothers. So impressed was reigning king of Warner Brothers George Arliss by Bette Davis that he invited her to play the major supporting role in THE MAN WHO PLAYED GOD in 1932. So well did they get a long that they made this film soon after the story of a sly businessman on vacation who gains the confidence of his rival business' family members. Though it was a George Arliss vehicle this herald highlights Bette Davis and presents her as the ultimate cheese cake model -- a role which she played aptly but which was not a challenge for her vast talents which Warner Brothers a few years and many fights later allowed her to display in great roles. In the 12 images here Bette displays an array in the fashion parade. Pinholes and slight wear at the top and bottom corners of each page ABOUT FINE. unknown books

WALTER-FILM000179No binding. Good. Fine Art Print Vintage original 14 x 22"" 35 x 56 cm. window card poster USA. Al Jolson Kay Francis Dolores del Rí Ricardo Cortez Dick Powell Guy Kibee Ruth Donnelly Hugh Herbert Louise Fazenda dir: Lloyd Bacon Busby Berkeley; Warner Brothers. Wonder Bar is the Paris entertainment bar owned by Al Wonder and he welcomes the audience in on camera and in the cinema audience to his establishment with a song ""Vive La France."" This performance at Jolson's insistence would be one of the last to be done live on camera with the Warner Brothers orchestra live on set portraying the club's band. The story involved a tragic love triangle which ended in murder -- a more lively script than standard musical faire of the day; still it was Busby Berkeley's wildly staged and edited production numbers which to this day are memorable. This included the number ""Don't Say Good-Night."" Released just prior to the code enforcement the film is full of illicit sex relationships homosexual references and getting away with murder. Today audiences may cringe at the now-politically incorrect production number ""Goin' to Heaven on a Mule"" which featured the Hall Johnson Choir. Witty and naughty audiences loved it and it made a nice profit for Warner Brothers. Paper-backed there has been some skillful but routine touch up to bottom margin and in the area of a couple of the small images of stars NEAR VERY GOOD. unknown books
