Auction History Result 2p1820 BROADWAY MELODY OF 1936 deluxe 8x10 still 1935 seven beauty spots by Clarence Sinclair Bull! Date Sold 8/2/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Broadway Melody of 1936, the 1935 Roy Del Ruth New York City romantic theater stage acting comedy musical ("Let's go to the giant show!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Jack Benny, Eleanor Powell, Robert Taylor, Una Merkel, Frances Langford, Sid Silvers, Buddy Ebsen (in his first movie!), June Knight, Vilma Ebsen (Buddy Ebsen's sister, in her only movie role), Harry Stockwell, and Nick Long Jr. Note that this movie was originally titled "Broadway Melody of 1935", but it likely had its name changed to "Broadway Melody of 1936", because it was released near the end of 1935, and they didn't want it to seem "dated"! Also note that this movie includes a wacky sequence where the woman hired to star in the show does not show up, and Sid Silvers has to dress up in drag and convince Jack Benny he is the female star! Note that June Knight was a striking blonde who appeared in 12 movies between 1930 and 1940, two of them in uncredited roles. Perhaps she had bad luck, but her movies were very forgettable, and she is completely forgotten today. If anyone knows more about her or what happened to her career, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the movie is called "Broadway Melody of 1935" on the back of this still, which was the working title for this movie (it was obviously changed when they realized that the movie would come out late in the year, and would be dated once New Year's passed! We are not sure what is going on in this photo! Someone wrote "Seven 'beauty spots' from the chorus" on the back, and we don't know what that means, or what exactly is the purpose of having seven individual spotlights on the seven ladies standing by the wall If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
