Auction History Result 5j621 WEDDING MARCH 8x10 still '28 great image of Erich Von Stroheim with Zasu Pitts & Fay Wray! Date Sold 6/4/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" (8x10) Movie Still (Learn More) Erich von Stroheim's The Wedding March, the 1928 Erich von Stroheim Vienna Austria romantic marriage melodrama ("The man you love to hate as he appears in The Wedding March"; about an impoverished aristocrat who falls in love with a poor inn-keeper's daughter but he will not marry her because he wants to marry into a wealthy family) starring Erich von Stroheim, Fay Wray, George Fawcett, Maude George, George Nichols, Zasu Pitts, Hughie Mack, Matthew Betz, and Danny Hoy. Note that amazingly, von Stroheim originally planned to have this be a "set" of two films which would be shown on consecutive nights (The Wedding March would be shown on the first night, and then the audiences were expected to return on the second night, to see the second film, a sequel to the first, with the same actors, called "The Honeymoon")! All of the footage for both films was shot but Stroheim's edit of the first film (The Wedding March) was over four hours long, and Paramount had it re-edited by someone else. Then, after The Wedding March received poor reviews and low box office totals, the sequel (The Honeymoon) was only released in Europe and South America, and movie paper from it is beyond rare! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that a paper snipe was glued to the back of the still, and then folded over to the front. This was done rather than gluing the snipe to the back, so that the snipe could be unfolded and the still could be displayed with the snipe unfolded, which would let moviegoers read the information on the snipe in the lobby (and of course, the snipe would be folded backwards, so it would not show). This was done with many stills of the 1930s, but often, the snipes are either partially or completely lost, because it is easier for them to be torn off. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, THE SNIPE DOES NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE FRONT OF THE STILL! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
