Auction History Result 8h208 DOWN ARGENTINE WAY 19 8x10 stills '40 sexy Betty Grable with Don Ameche, Henry Stephenson! Date Sold 6/28/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 19 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Down Argentine Way, the 1940 Irving Cummings Argentina romantic musical comedy ("The musical extravaganza two continents 47have been waiting for!"; "Story by Rian James and Ralph Spence") starring Don Ameche, Betty Grable, Carmen Miranda, Charlotte Greenwood, Kay Aldridge (billed as "Katharine Aldridge"), J. Carrol Naish, Henry Stephenson, Leonid Kinskey, Chris-Pin Martin, and The Nicholas Brothers (Fayard & Harold). Note that while this movie did very well at the box office in the U.S., the people in Argentina hated it, and it was not even allowed to be shown there! This was because of many errors within the movie, and they also felt that the presence of Carmen Miranda made it seem like Argentina was a tropical country, which it certainly was not! Also note that there is an oddity to this movie. The movie paper has a 1938 copyright date, but the movie was not released until October 1940! We know that at least 10 months were spent filming the movie, but that still would not account for that two year gap. 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. Important Added Info: SUPER IMPORTANT! THOUGH ONLY EIGHT OF THE STILLS ARE PICTURED, THE HIGH BIDDER ON THIS LOT WILL RECEIVE 19 STILLS FROM THIS MOVIE (but realize that on some of these lots with 9 or more stills there may be a few duplicates, mostly on post-1960 lots)! We realize there is an element of gambling to this, but we made only a small effort to find the best stills in these lots, and, if you have any willingness to gamble at all, you may find that you get some great stills that were not pictured! Please do NOT bid on this lot unless you can accept that you are only seeing eight of the stills. Condition: good. Each has varying degrees of creases, smudges or scuffs scattered in various areas.
