The Jerk!'"; "Hold on to your hat, Gary... A glamour dish is after your heart!"; "You'll laugh with your heart wide open at this whooping, yet warmly tender comedy-romance! It's Gary in top-form as a stiff-as-a-board professor who unbends with a bang... When a glamour-dish whose slang he's studying treats him to a lesson in curves!"; "Don't be a Drizzle-Puss... I'm just showing you... What 'YUM-YUM' means!"; "A new heart-note in laughter, bright with that Goldwyn glow!"; "Screen play by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder"; VERY loosely based on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, with a gangster's showgirl girlfriend taking refuge with seven nerdy professors, and falling in love with one of them) starring Gary Cooper, Barbara Stanwyck (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; as Sugarpuss O'Shea), Oscar Homolka, Henry Travers, Tully Marshall, Dana Andrews, Dan Duryea, S.Z. Sakall, Leonid Kinskey, Richard Haydn, Aubrey Mather, Allen Jenkins, and Ralph Peters NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this great still has "PHOTO BY HURRELL" stamped on the back. The still was expertly touched up with grey and black paint so that it would appear better when reproduced, and we don't know if that was done by Hurrell or more likely, by an employee at the newspaper or magazine that reproduced this still. Also note that this still measures 7 1/4" x 9 1/4" [18 x 23 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Condition: good to very good. The still was used in a newspaper or magazine and there is some grey paint around the figures of the stars (so it would show up better; see above). It was once mounted to a backing board, and there are yellow glue stains over the entire back, as well as some areas of surface paper loss on the back, but none of it really affects the front.
