Auction History Result 6w0171 FAZIL 8x10.25 still 1928 Greta Nissen loves Arab Prince Charles Farrell, Howard Hawks! Date Sold 12/10/2020 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) 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 in our last set of auctions that include multiple stills from single titles, we had 72 sets of stills that came from a wonderful group of just-discovered stills that are from 1927 to 1929, with the majority from 1928 exactly. Now, we are auctioning the remaining stills from this wonderful group, 131, all in separate auctions. In addition to them including a LOT of previously unseen stills (and sometimes from incredibly rare titles!), most of these stills have either snipes on the bottom or back, and many have some pencil writing on the back about the movie or actors. After these stills are auctioned, there will be no more stills from this wonderful collection! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
