Auction History Result 2b1760 GIRLS' DORMITORY 8x10.25 still 1936 Simone Simon between Ruth Chatterton & Herbert Marshall! Date Sold 5/10/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Girls' Dormitory, the 1936 Irving Cummings romantic melodrama (based on the play by Ladislas Fodor; about a director of an all-girl school in Switzerland, who has a relationship with a female professor there, but he becomes involved with a beautiful young student, and it is unclear throughout the movie who he will end up with) starring Herbert Marshall, Ruth Chatterton, Simone Simon (billed on U.S. posters as "Introducing A New Personality Simone Simon"), Constance Collier, J. Edward Bromberg, Dixie Dunbar, John Qualen, and Shirley Deane. Note that Simone Simon started acting in Europe in 1931, but was signed by Darryl F. Zanuck in 1936 to a Hollywood contract, and he billed her in the above way in this movie. In 1938, she became disenchanted with the roles she was given in Hollywood and she returned to France, where she had a starring role in "La Bete Humaine". In 1941, she returned to the U.S. and had a second U.S. career in movies such as "All That Money Can Buy" and "Cat People"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this great individual still (and a number of others, both singles and sets) come from a recently discovered collection of mostly 1930s stills (but with some from the 1920s, and some from the 1940s and 1950s) that came from the estate of a longtime journalist who wrote about these movies and visited the sets of many movies and were given these stills at that time. They are all rare original stills from the first release of the movies, and some have cool candid images. We auctioned a similar group of stills from this wonderful collection in our auctions that closed April 12, 2022, and now we are auctioning almost all of the remaining stills from this collection (in singles and sets, just as they were last time). After this set of auctions, there will be only a handful left from this collection, so this is pretty much your last opportunity to acquire these extremely rare stills, including some from movies you almost never see anything from! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
