<p><em>Paramount. No binding. Near Fine. Los Angeles: Paramount Pictures 1932. Vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm black-and-white glossy silver gelatin photo. Near fine. </em></p><p>A beautiful portrait of Anna May Wong for one of her most substantial roles in a major talking film the notorious pre-Code opus <em>Shanghai Express</em> directed by Josef von Stroheim. Though Wong received third billing behind Marlene Dietrich and Clive Brook her portrayal of Hui Fei is universally regarded as a masterclass in acting. Hui Fei is a fiercely independent woman navigating a train ride from Peking to Shanghai during the Chinese Civil War which is hijacked by rebel forces. Her performance often overshadowed Dietrich's. Unfortunately she would not be cast in another role as complex as this. Wikipedia</p><p>Photo coded P671-245.</p> Paramount

Minor wear at bottom left edge keybook holes at left edge about fine. Independent film producer Walter Wanger throws a wrap party at the completion of his Paramount-released musical Every Night at Eight on the film's nightclub set and likely on the last day of principal photography; it is rare to find photos showing such events. His stars Alice Faye Frances Langford George Raft and director Raoul Walsh are joined by left-to-right: - Henry Fonda who was placed under contract to Wanger in 1935 after Broadway success and was just finishing his first film The Farmer Takes a Wife; - Gail Patrick Paramount contract player who was appearing in Wanger's Smart Girl at the time; - Walter Wanger producer of the film; - Alice Faye who was on loan from Fox Pictures to star in Wanger's film. She is still in costume; - Ida Lupino who was appearing in and is in costume and makeup for Wanger's production Smart Girl; - William Wellman well-known director writer and producer seemingly between projects; - Alison Skipworth in costume for The Devil is a Woman; - Frances Langford making her feature film debut and debuting her signature song ""I'm In the Mood for Love"". Her costume matches that of Alice Faye; - George Raft lead star of the film and Paramount contract player; - Joan Bennett who would be married to Wanger between 1940-65 and who was appearing in numerous Paramount films in 1935; - Raoul Walsh director of the film; - Bert Hanlon though the verso identifies him as Harry Holman -- the character actor who appeared in over 20 films in 1935 alone including uncredited in this film -- it is incorrect. This is composer songwriter actor author and director Bert Hanlon who wrote dialogue for this film. The party took place in late-June 1935 at General Service Studio Hollywood CA.

Josef von Sternberg director THUNDERBOLT 1929 Photo archive
Paramount. No binding. Just About Fine. Los Angeles: Paramount Pictures 1929. Set of 12 vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm black-and-white photos one with mimeographed text on verso three with the film's title stamped on verso overall just about fine. Josef von Sternberg's first talking film. Some historians credit his importance in the evolution of gangster films with his UNDERWORLD 1927. This was by any standard the first significant talking gangster film. It tells the story of a criminal facing execution who wants to kill the man in the next cell for being in love with his former girlfriend. Sternberg experimented with asynchronous sound effects which served to augment or supplement the visual effects or as he framed the process "To be correctly and effectively used the sound had to bring to the image a quality other than what the lens included a quality out of the range of the image. Sound had to counterpoint or compensate for the image add to it – not subtract from it." Rather than the external and complementary musical accompaniment of silent films Sternberg's scores arise organically with the mise-en-scène and form a key component of the film. The music off-screen does not recede in deference to the on-screen dialogue but competes with it. Off-screen voices comment on the visual action but are not identified visually until later in the film sequence contributing to an "unrealistic cadence" that characterizes the film's dialogue. Film historian Andrew Sarris describes it as "a startling experiment. his use of sound and music for mood effects and the very unreality of his style seems to justify the unusual density of his sound track." Sternberg also uses sound expressionistically such as the erratic start-stop of a sewing machine or the "sinister" squeaking of a dog's ball toy squeezed by the condemned criminal in the hours before his death.

LOVE PARADE THE 1929 Cast & crew photo
Paramount. No binding. Near Fine. Los Angeles: Paramount 1929. Vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm black-and-white glossy silver gelatin photo. Minor soiling to edges crease at bottom right corner 1929 holograph note on verso. Near fine. Rare is this image of cast with crew so many waiting to be identified with many of the top artists at Paramount Studios. The film is notable for being both the debut of Jeanette MacDonald and the first talkie film made by Ernst Lubitsch. The picture was also released in a French-language version called Parade d'amour. Maurice Chevalier thought he would never be capable of acting as a royal courtier and had to be persuaded by Lubitsch. This huge box-office hit appeared just after the Wall Street crash and did much to save the fortunes of Paramount Studios. The major players of this groundbreaking early sound musical are present in the front row including Lupino Lane Lubitsch MacDonald Chevalier and likely cinematographer Victor Milner at left behind Jeanette. He won the Academy Award for Best Cinematography. He and Lubitsch are mentioned in the handwritten note on verso. The notations also specifically indicate the filming dates of June July and August 1929. Paramount unknown

MARLENE DIETRICH SIDNEY TOLER BLONDE VENUS 1932 Photo
<p><em>Paramount. No binding. About Fine. Los Angeles: Paramount 1932. Vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm. black-and-white glossy silver gelatin photo. There are light signs of use at blank corners about fine. </em></p><p>Marlene Dietrich was the true writer of the screenplay for this opus which took her from wealth to ruin to rags to fame to wealth again. The censors crossed out so much of her material even in the pre-Code period that by the time a final script was approved she and director/mentor Joseph von Sternberg had little interest in making the film. They came through though with a brilliant odyssey highlighted by Dietrich in many moods all behind heavy diffusion.</p><p>Here is Dietrich as the down-and-out vagrant Helen Faraday with Sidney Toler as the detective on her trail. Photo coded 1385-87.</p> Paramount

The ""Paramount Pictures Marlene Dietrich"" byline is at the bottom left edge of the image and there is a production number at the right edge which appears to be ""1167-482"".
