An Original Vintage Theatrical 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) The Sphinx, the 1933 Phil Rosen mistaken identity romantic love triangle murder mystery crime thriller (about a rich deaf mute man who is always around when people are found murdered, and some people claim to have heard him talking, but the police test his hearing by firing guns and making loud sounds near him, and he always passes; at the end of the movie it is revealed that he CAN talk and hear, but that he has a deaf mute twin brother, who takes his place when it is necessary!) starring Lionel Atwill (as twin brothers), Sheila Terry, Theodore Newton ("Courtesy of Warner Bros."), Paul Hurst, Lucien Prival, and Robert Ellis. Note that the title of this movie refers to the old expression about someone being "as unmoving as a Sphinx", which is how the deaf mute man in the movie reacts to loud sounds. But the designer of the lobby cards either didn't know this or didn't care, and they put artwork of the actual Sphinx and the pyramids in the border of the lobby cards!
