An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) Dramatic School, the 1938 Robert B. Sinclair romantic theater acting school melodrama ("Daring Intimate Revelations Behind the Scenes"; a really clever story of girls at an acting school where one of them is always falling asleep in class, and she tells her friends that is because she has a rich French boyfriend, when actually she is working in a factory to pay to go to the school; one of the rich female students invites her and her "boyfriend" to a party, intending to humiliate her, but the Frenchman is told of what occurred, and he pretends to actually be her boyfriend, and of course, they fall in love; but ultimately they part when the girl realizes that she loves the theater even more than her rich boyfriend!) starring Luise Rainer, Paulette Goddard, Alan Marshal, Lana Turner (in her sixth credited role!), Anthony Allen, Henry Stephenson, and Genevieve Tobin. Note that the lead roles in this movie were played by Rainer and Goddard, both 28, and both pretending to be school girls. They cast actual teenagers to play the other students, and one of them was Lana Turner, who was only 17, a year after her memorable cameo in "They Won't Forget", and a year away from getting really noticed and becoming a star!

Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, printed on a deluxe heavyweight paper stock (it is also stamped "THIS IS A KEY SET PRINT" on the back). Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: very good. The left 1" was trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition!
