An Original Vintage English Magazine Supplement (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm]; 1 page) (Learn More) The Manxman, the 1929 Alfred Hitchcock English silent romantic love triangle melodrama ("A screen adaptation of Sir Hall Caine's famous novel"; set on the Isle of Man, where some of the filming was done, about two men who grew up like brothers, but one becomes a fisherman and the other becomes a lawyer, and then the fisherman falls in love a young woman, and she agrees to marry him, and when he goes off on a long fishing trip, he asks his best friend to take care of her, not realizing he also loves her; the fisherman is thought to have been killed, and the lawyer does not have to hide his love for the girl, but then they learn that the fisherman is still alive!) starring Carl Brisson, Malcolm Keen, Anny Ondra, Randle Ayrton, and Clare Greet (billed as "Claire Greet"). Note that this was Alfred Hitchcock's final silent movie. There are not many intertitles, as Hitchcock preferred to let the viewer see what was happening rather than being told. There is a key moment in the film when the girl separately tells each of the two men that she is going to have a baby, and in both cases there is no intertitle (the viewer has to either read her lips, or deduce what was said by the man's reaction!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that in the late 1920s and early 1930s, the top English movie magazines started including "supplements" in the center of the magazine (sometimes they were bound in, and sometimes they were loose). These were like the Sunday newspaper "rotogravure" sections, and were all sepia and had great images from then-current movies. Note that this was removed from the January 25, 1930 issue of Picture Show magazine. There is printing on the reverse side of the page, but the primary interest is the cool ad for Alfred Hitchcock's "The Manxman". Condition: very good. The page was removed from a magazine (see above). Learn More about condition grades
