Date Sold 10/11/2015Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1942 (from the first release of this movie in Spain) Vintage Theatrical Spanish Movie Herald (measures 4 3/4" x 6 3/4" [12 x 17 cm]; 2pg) (Learn More) Something to Sing About (released in France as "Hollywood Hollywood"), the 1937 Victor Schertzinger Hollywood actor musical comedy ("Dancing... Romancing and Packing a Real Wallop! The No. 1 Dynamo of the screen goes to town in his latest and greatest role."; "It's something to cheer about!"; "Original Story, Music and Direction by Victor Schertzinger"; about a New York bandleader who goes to Hollywood and appears in a movie, when the filming is over he marries his fiance and they go on a honeymoon, but in the meantime the movie is a huge hit and he is lured back to Hollywood, which puts a strain on his new marriage) starring James Cagney ("A Cagney You Have Never Seen!"), Evelyn Daw, William Frawley, Mona Barrie, Gene Lockhart, James Newill, Harry Barris, Cully Richards, Candy Candido, William Davidson, Richard Tucker, Marek Windheim, Johnny Arthur, Dwight Frye, and Philip Ahn. Note that this movie was made when Cagney was having a major dispute with Warner Bros., not just about salary, but also about them forcing him to make gangster movie after gangster movie. So he signed to make this movie with Grand National, a small studio, and it is a parody of the beginning of his own career, because he was a dancer on Broadway who made Public Enemy, and he thought that might be a one time thing, and that he would return to Broadway, but it made him a star (and typecast him as a gangster). However, this movie turned out to be a major flop, which really hurt Grand National, because they spent over $900,000 on it, which crippled the studio and put them out of business a few years later. What makes it doubly sad is that they had the rights to Angels with Dirty Faces at the same time as this movie, and they chose to make this movie first! Had they made Angels first, it might have made the studio much more successful! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Ramon Important Added Info: Note that when Spanish heralds have printing on the back, we picture both sides, but when they are blank on the back, we only picture the front. Please note that Spanish heralds, like U.S. heralds, were printed in very large quantities, and then sent to individual theaters in Spain, and they would sometimes have the backs of them overprinted with their theater name and specific play dates. But because a movie might play in Spain for a period of a year or two (traveling from theater to theater), there is no guarantee that the date overprinted on the back of the herald is the same as the date that the herald was first printed (and the date that the movie first played in Spain). Therefore, we don't list the date overprinted on the back of a herald as the date of the herald unless we know that was when the movie first played in Spain. If we believe the herald was printed earlier, then we use that date. If it is important to you that the date on the herald is the date the movie first opened, then please look at our image of the back of this herald to see if there is a different date printed on it.
