Date Sold 1/16/2024Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Father Brown, Detective, the 1935 Edward Sedgwick religious priest detective mystery crime melodrama ("The Police Wanted His Body! A Lovely Girl Wanted His Heart! Father Brown Wanted His Soul!"; based on the "Father Brown" detective novels by G.K. Chesterton; about a priest who tries to stop a thief from stealing a valuable diamond encrusted cross, but he is more interested in saving the man than the jewels!) starring Walter Connolly (in the title role as Father Brown), Paul Lukas, Gertrude Michael, Robert Loraine, Una O'Connor, and Virginia Weidler. Note that this is one of two movies based on this same story by G.K. Chesterton. It was remade in 1954 as simply "Father Brown", with Alec Guinness in the lead role. Walter Connolly's interpretation tries to humanize the priest, and viewers are divided as to who did the better job of portraying the priest/detective (apparently Chesterton thought Guinness did a much better job!).
