An Original Vintage Theatrical 7 1/2" x 10" [19 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Anna and the King of Siam, the classic 1946 John Cromwell historical Thailand royalty romantic teacher melodrama ("Based upon the biography by Margaret Landon"; produced by Darryl F. Zanuck; later turned into the hit Broadway musical and movie, "The King and I") starring Irene Dunne (in the title role as Anna), Rex Harrison (in the title role as the King of Siam; his first American role, in yellowface!), Linda Darnell, Lee J. Cobb, Gale Sondergaard (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Mikhail Rasumny, Dennis Hoey, Tito Renaldo, Richard Lyon, and Laurette Luez. Note that Darnell's character is burned at the stake for leaving the king. Tragically, Darnell herself would die in a house fire 19 years later. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is a test photo used to show one of the many costumes that Rex Harrison wore during this movie (the stars would put on each costume and stand next to a board with the details of when that costume was used in the movie, and then they would try on a different one and repeat the process, until they had tried on all their costumes; I wonder if major stars of today have to endure this same ritual?) Also note that it is extremely likely that this is a "key book" still, and it is virtually a certainty that the punch holes were put there by the studio at the time the still was created, so they are not a defect. Otherwise, it is in nice condition! Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 1/2" x 10" [19 x 25 cm]. Condition: good to very good. The left and right blank borders were neatly trimmed off. Learn More about condition grades
