An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Devil's Holiday, the 1930 Edmund Goulding family relationship gold digger romantic melodrama ("Suckers - sinners - saints!"; "She toyed with them - scoffed at them - laughed at them - until she was caught in the toils of her own net!"; "Story and screen play by Edmund Goulding"; about a man-hating manicurist in a small western city who romances farmers and takes them for their money; she meets the son of a wealthy farmer and starts to do the same thing to him, but his brother and father try to stop her; the father offers her money to leave his son alone, and she takes it, but later, she regrets it, and she returns the money and finds true love with the son) starring Nancy Carroll (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film "In a New Kind Of Picture"), Phillips Holmes, James Kirkwood, Zasu Pitts, and Ned Sparks. 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", retitled "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. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Condition: very good to fine. The still is in very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
