An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" Movie Still (Learn More) Sylvia Scarlett, the 1935 George Cukor Europe romantic smuggling embezzling crime comedy (based on the novel by Compton MacKenzie; about a father who goes to England to escape charges in France, he brings his daughter with him but disguises her as a boy and they successfully go on a crime spree with no one recognizing them until the girl meets a handsome young man and falls in love!) starring Katharine Hepburn (in the title role as Sylvia Scarlett), Cary Grant, Brian Aherne, Edmund Gwenn, Robert Adair, and Princess Natalie Paley (she was a Russian noblewoman who had a claim to being a Princess, but the Russian Revolution ended that; she married a Frenchman and appeared in a handful of French and U.S. movies; later, she moved to America and lived there until her passing in 1981). Note that as noted above, Katharine Hepburn masquerades as a boy in the early part of the movie, and being a dedicated thespian, Miss Hepburn actually had her hair cut short, because wearing a wig would have detracted from the quality of her performance!
