Auction History Result 1h642 MAGNIFICENT LIE 8x10 key book still '31 close up of Ralph Bellamy & sexy Ruth Chatterton! Date Sold 7/25/2013 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 7 1/2" x 9 3/4" [19 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) The Magnificent Lie, the 1931 Berthold Viertel romantic mistaken identity melodrama ("Based on 'Laurels and the Lady' by Leonard Merrick"; about a man who was recently blinded, and he has a great love of a French singing star, and his woman friend pretends to be that singing star, and to fall in love with him, to give him a reason to go on living) starring Ruth Chatterton, Ralph Bellamy, Stuart Erwin, Francoise Rosay, and Charles Boyer. Note that Charles Boyer was a college graduate with a philosophy degree, and he appeared in a few movies in his early 20s. He had greater success in talking movies, thanks to his distinctive French accent (which Chuck Jones "borrowed" for his character Pepe Le Pew), but he had his greatest success in Hollywood in the early 1940s, when many of the top U.S. stars were away in World War II.

Important Added Info: Note that the still is glued to a linen-like backing (we think it is highly likely this was a key book still, and that someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still, no doubt so it could be put in a frame). Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
