An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Vanity Fair, the 1923 Hugo Ballin (he was married to the star of the movie, Mabel Ballin) silent England romantic social climbing melodrama (based on the novel by William Makepeace Thackeray; set in Victorian England; about a young woman from humble beginnings who longs to greatly better herself, and she does that through going from one man to another, but things don't work out exactly as she had hoped) starring Mabel Ballin (as Becky Sharp), Hobart Bosworth, Harrison Ford (not the same Harrison Ford that we know as an actor today, but a very popular leading man of the 1920s), George Walsh, Bobby Mack, Earle Fox, Mrs. Cranfurd Kent, Adele Roland, and Eleanor Boardman. Note that this movie included one sequence filmed in color by Prizmacolor, and it was remade by Rouben Mamoulian in 1935 as "Becky Sharp", starring Miriam Hopkins in the title role, and that movie was the very first feature movie in Technicolor! Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. If the plot of this movie seems remarkably similar to Barry Lyndon (except with the genders switched), it is because the same author (Thackeray) wrote both novels! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this great candid shows a far shot of the "Brussells street scene", with dozens of extras. What is really cool is that you can see that the houses in the street were not completed at the top, because they would not be shown in the movie, so you can see the unfinished tops of the buildings! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
