Date Sold 9/2/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 3 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) A Star Is Born, the classic 1954 George Cukor theater stage acting musical romantic melodrama ("We believe there hasn't been before, even once, such a performance by a motion picture star, such perfection in motion picture entertainment!"; "There has been no performance like Judy Garland's. There has been no picture like 'A Star is Born'."; about an aging star who marries an up-and-coming star; partially based on the true story of Al Jolson and Ruby Keeler, which had been previously somewhat covered in "The Jolson Story" in 1946) starring Judy Garland (nominated for of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; her loss to Grace Kelly was famously quipped by Groucho Marx as "the biggest robbery since Brink's"!), James Mason (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), Jack Carson, Charles Bickford, Tommy Noonan, Lucy Marlow, Amanda Blake, Irving Bacon, James Brown, Lotus Robb, Richard Webb, and Sam Colt. Note that this movie was loosely remade in 1976, with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristoffersen in the lead roles, and they were updated to being rock 'n' roll (rock and roll) performers. It was remade again in 2018, with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these stills appear in every way to be original U.S. release EXCEPT that there is one very tiny line of French type in the lower right of each still. It reads, "IMPRIME AUX ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE". A collector has told us that he believes this means the stills were printed for use in areas that included French-speaking parts of Canada, but that they WERE printed in the U.S., and that makes complete sense to us (and we have seen this on stills from the 1940s through the early 2000s, so it has certainly been done for an extremely long time)! So they are original stills from 1954, but they were printed partially for use in French-speaking Canada. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
