Date Sold 7/23/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 2 Original Vintage Theatrical Color (measure from 7 1/2" x 9 3/4" [19 x 25 cm] to 7 3/4" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) Movie Stills (Learn More) Guys and Dolls, the 1955 Joseph L. Mankiewicz New York City romantic gambling Broadway dance musical ("It's a living breathing doll of a musical!"; "Samuel Goldwyn presents America's Own Musical!"; based on the play by Abe Burrows & Jo Swerling; about a professional gambler who bets an operator of an illegal craps game that he can take a beautiful Salvation Army worker to Cuba with him for dinner!) starring Marlon Brando (as Sky Masterson), Jean Simmons (as Sister Sarah Brown), Frank Sinatra (as Nathan Detroit), Vivian Blaine (as Miss Adelaide), Robert Keith (as Lt. Brannigan), Stubby Kaye (as Nicely-Nicely Johnson), B.S. Pully (as Big Jule), Johnny Silver (as Benny Southstreet), Sheldon Leonard (as Harry the Horse), The Goldwyn Girls, and Larri Thomas (as the sexy Cuban dancer who flirts with Brando in Cuba, and gets in a fight with Simmons!). Note that Sam Levene was the original Nathan Detroit in the first stage version of "Guys and Dolls", but he was replaced for the movie by Frank Sinatra, because producer Sam Goldwyn did not consider Levene a big enough name, and Goldwyn also refused to let Sinatra play Sky Masterson, who would have been wonderful, and instead Goldwyn cast Marlon Brando (which led to much friction between Brando and Sinatra)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that although these stills were "printed in Great Britain", they have full NSS information. They may have been intended to be used in both countries, but at least some movies have both these NSS stills and also English FOH stills with the same images, and we have never heard from a collector who saw the NSS stills in UK theaters. A knowledgeable collector suggests that these NSS stills were used solely in the U.S., and that perhaps studios printed them in Great Britain as a way to "use up" UK profits and avoid having to pay taxes. If anyone knows more about these stills, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good. Each has been trimmed around the edges. The images themselves are in pretty nice condition.
