An Original Vintage Theatrical 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Darryl F. Zanuck was a screenwriter in the 1920s and who became a legendary producer from the 1930s to the 1970s. Some of his movies include: All About Eve, The Grapes of Wrath, How Green Was My Valley, The Longest Day, and Night and the City. He had an unusual beginning! He was born in Wahoo, Nebraska, the result of an affair between the owner of a hotel and the night clerk, and by the time he was 13, he had been abandoned by both his parents, and at 16, he lied about his age and joined the Army, serving in Belgium in World War I. Afterward, he had a series of odd jobs, but then got a job in the movie business, and the rest, as they say, is history! In case you were wondering, the "F" stands for Francis AND Rosalind Russell (born Catherine Rosalind Russell) was an actress from the 1930s to the 1970s. Her middle name, which she used when she performed, came from the name of a ship! She was far from an overnight success. She did not start acting in movies until she was 27, and for several years, she was used by MGM to keep Myrna Loy from demanding more money! She mostly had secondary parts. In 1939, her skill at comedy was discovered when she played one of the leads in The Women, and that led to her starring role in His Girl Friday, playing a part written for a man. She alternated between making movies and appearing on the stage, and she had great success on both with Auntie Mame (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film). Some of her other movies include: Sister Kenny (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), My Sister Eileen (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and Mourning Becomes Electra (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film) Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm], but it has not been trimmed.
