Auction History Result m295 BRIDE WORE RED movie lobby card '37 Joan Crawford, Robert Young Date Sold 3/4/2008Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) The Bride Wore Red, the 1937 Dorothy Arzner poor-girl-romanced-by-rich-man romantic love triangle marriage wedding comedy ("Her most glorious and exciting romance!") starring Joan Crawford, Franchot Tone, Robert Young, Billie Burke, Reginald Owen, Lynne Carver, and Dickie Moore. Like most of director Arzner's movies, this one dealt with a very independent woman who "goes her own way" in life! Also note that Dorothy Arzner was a director from the 1920s to the 1940s, and she was the only woman director during the "Golden Age" of Hollywood ('20s to '40s) and she was the first woman to join the Directors Guild of America. Arzner was a lesbian at a time when almost no females openly were, and she was surprisingly open about it, often dressing in "men's clothes" and wearing her hair short. She made many "women's movies" and movies with a "feminist" theme. After making "First Comes Courage" in 1943, she made training films for the U.S. Army WACs, and she never returned to making Hollywood movies, becoming a film teacher of directing and screenwriting, teaching at UCLA until her passing in 1979.

There was once a piece of tape on the back of the upper left and upper right of the card, but they were not put there for any restoration purpose (they were almost surely there to hold the card to a mat). Both pieces of tape were removed, and caused slight surface paper loss on the back of the card that has no effect on the front. Otherwise, this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back of the card! Learn More about condition grades
