Auction History Result 9j1473 SHANGHAI EXPRESS 8x10.25 still 1932 sexiest portrait of Anna May Wong, Josef von Sternberg Date Sold 8/3/2021 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) Shanghai Express, the 1932 Josef von Sternberg (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) China Asian railroad train romantic adventure thriller (nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a group of passengers on a Chinese train bound for Shanghai; naturally, there are all sorts of different and memorable passengers, including Chinese revolutionaries, but none more memorable than the "Shanghai Lily", played of course by Dietrich) starring Marlene Dietrich, Clive Brook, Anna May Wong, Warner Oland, Eugene Pallette, Lawrence Grant, and Louise Closser Hale. Note that this was one of the seven movies that Dietrich made with director von Sternberg, and it is likely the best regarded, after "The Blue Angel" (which was the only one of the seven which was not a U.S. movie, because von Sternberg made it in Germany, in both languages). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still has great information on the back that says "no matter where your sympathies are in the China-Jappo war gestures, we know where your eyes will be when this pretty oriental tribute is unveiled"! Condition: good to very good. There are a few faint tiny dot stains scattered in the bottom of the image, but they are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light. There are some tiny areas of emulsion loss, faint smudges, and a few extremely tiny tears in the blank borders. In spite of the above defects, the still displays pretty well from any reasonable viewing distance, and the tiny border defects would not show if it were framed! Learn More about condition grades
