An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 3/4" x 41 1/4" [68 x 105 cm]) (Learn More)

George Sidney's Jeanne Eagels, the 1957 George Sidney romantic biography stage play acting melodrama tragedy ("Story by Daniel Fuchs"; very loosely based on the real life actress; about a woman who gives up her entire life to become a movie star, and finds that she would have much rather become a mother, but by then it is too late, and she dies quite young) starring Kim Novak (in the title role as Jeanne Eagels), Jeff Chandler, Agnes Moorehead, Charles Drake, Larry Gates, Virginia Grey, and Gene Lockhart. Of course, Jeanne Eagels was an actress from the 1910s until her passing in 1929. Her father died in 1910, leaving his widow with six children, and Jeanne quit school and went to work in a department store. She soon became a dancer and actress in a traveling company in the Midwest. She moved to New York City and became a Ziegfeld Girl, dying her hair blonde. She appeared in some plays, and then some movies in the middle 1910s. In 1922, she starred in the stage play version of Rain, and then toured with it for several years. She appeared several more movies and plays in the late 1920s. During this period, she had problems with drinking, and was disruptive on film sets, sometimes not showing up. In 1928, after she failed to appear for a play performance, she was banned from Actors Equity from appearing on the stage for 18 months, she went to Hollywood and made The Letter (in her nominated for Best Actress Academy Award role) and Jealousy. Soon after she was preparing to return to Broadway, when she passed away at the age of 39, from an overdose (a combination of alcohol, heroin, and chloral hydrate).
