Auction History Result h129 FAZIL window card movie poster '28 Howard Hawks, Greta Nissen, Farrell Date Sold 6/28/2005Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) Fazil, the 1928 Howard Hawks Paris France romantic royalty clash-of-cultures melodrama ("Desire under the Palms and along Parisian Boulevards"; "Story by Pierre Frondaie"; about an Arab prince in love with a Parisian woman, and they can't be happy in either setting, because of the huge differences) starring Charles Farrell (in the title role as Prince Fazil), Greta Nissen, Mae Busch, Vadim Uraneff, and Tyler Brooke. Note that the movie was once considered lost, but has since been found. Also, apparently there was no natural chemistry between Farrell and Nissen, but director Hawks was able to get them to pretend in a way that fooled audiences. He signed Nissen to play the lead in his next movie, Howard Hughes' "Hell's Angels", but it was shot as a silent, and then it was decided that it would be re-shot as a sound movie, which eliminated Nissen due to her heavy Norwegian accent, and she was fired and replaced by Jean Harlow, and the rest, as they say, is history!

Important Added Info: Note that there is a crease in the woman's face, but it is not all that noticeable. There are water stains around the edges extending into the image background and some paper residue in the upper left blank white area. Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
