Auction History Result 3z0306 MILLION DOLLAR RANSOM 8x10.25 still 1934 close up of somber Phillips Holmes wearing tuxedo! Date Sold 4/2/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Million Dollar Ransom, the 1934 Murray Roth crime thriller ("Damon Runyon's smashing Cosmopolitan Magazine Story") starring Phillips Holmes, Edward Arnold, Mary Carlisle, Andy Devine, Wini Shaw, Spencer Charters, and Henry Kolker. Note that Phillips Holmes had made an impression in some movies in the late 1920s. In 1931, he would get the lead in the first version of "An American Tragedy", which made it seem like he would become a major star, but that didn't materialize. He had a major affair with Libby Holman, but that was certainly complicated, and when they broke up, she immediately married his brother! Oddly, years later, Holman would have another very complicated affair with Montgomery Clift, who played the same part in the remake of "An American Tragedy", re-titled "A Place in the Sun". Sadly, Holmes died in a plane crash in 1942. I am very surprised no one has made a movie about his life, or a joint movie about him and Libby Holman! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
