Auction History Result 5h964 WHERE THE PAVEMENT ENDS LC 1923 Morey & little John George in Polynesia, Rex Ingram, rare! Date Sold 4/1/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Where the Pavement Ends, the 1923 Rex Ingram silent Polynesian island romantic love triangle melodrama ("A METRO Super Picture"; "By John Russell"; about a minister on a Polynesian island where a white trader runs a saloon, and the trader is in love with the minister's daughter, but she loves a native chief, and her father doesn't want her with either man) starring Alice Terry, Ramon Novarro, Edward Connelly, Harry T. Morey, and John George (born Tufei Filthela, he was only 4'2", and he played "little people" in movies from 1916 to 1961). There is an oddity about the plot of this movie. In one summary, it says that the native chief saves the daughter from the white trader and then commits suicide. In another, it says that the native chief saves the daughter and then reveals himself to be a "white man" in disguise, and they go to England together! Perhaps the movie was filmed with two completely different endings, but because this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist, we can't view the film to find out more about it. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
