Auction History Result 6w1307 STOLEN MOMENTS LC 1920 Rudolph Valentino watches Marguerite Namara talk to another man! Date Sold 12/10/2020 Sold 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) Stolen Moments, the 1920 James Vincent silent romantic blackmail crime melodrama ("Written by H. Thompson Rich") starring Marguerite Namara, Rudolph Valentino (billed as "Rudolf Valentine"), Albert L. Barrett, Henrietta Simpson, Arthur Earle, and Aileen Pringle. In this movie, Valentino plays a real cad! He is a Brazilian visiting the deep south where he romances a woman and she breaks her engagement and goes to South America with him, only to discover he has no intention of marrying her. She returns home, and later he turns up, trying to blackmail her, and he is killed, and suspicion falls on the woman, but it turns out he was killed by the brother of a different woman he jilted. Note that when this movie was released in 1920, Marguerite Namara was the star of this movie, and Valentino was not well known (and he was billed as "Rudolf Valentine"!). But the following year, he had a part in "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse", in which he was not prominently billed, but that role made him a major star, which quickly led to several other movies, including "The Sheik", also in 1921. At that point (late 1921 or early 1922), this movie was re-released, and Valentino was now top billed (as "Rodolph Valentino", as he was billed in some 1922 movies), and poor Maguerite Namara was no longer billed at all! Movie paper from this title has always been incredibly rare. Prior to 2018, the only poster that we had auctioned was an English three-sheet, from the early re-release described above. In 2018, we auctioned a title card from the U.S. re-release described above (which is the only U.S. paper we have auctioned). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: good. There is a 5" tear with many creases at bottom center, and someone put tape on the back of that tear. Learn More about condition grades
