An Original Vintage Paperbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh) (Learn More) Rockabye, the 1933 George Cukor romantic melodrama starring Constance Bennett, Joel McCrea, Paul Lukas, Jobyna Howland, Walter Pidgeon, Clara Blandick, June Filmer, and Charles Middleton (uncredited as the prosecuting attorney). Note that Walter Pidgeon was born in 1897, and started making silent movies in the mid 1920s, but he had limited success. He had a wonderful speaking voice, but that did not lead to stardom in early sound movies. Finally, in 1937, at the age of 40, MGM put him under contract, but still limited him to supporting roles. His "big break" finally came in 1941 with "How Green Was My Valley", and he became one of MGM's top stars of the early 1940s (no doubt helped by so many other male stars being away at war). He stayed with MGM for the remainder of his career. Note that June Filmer was a 4 year-old child actress who sang a song in this movie, which was her debut. She only appeared in a few more movies before retiring in 1935 at the age of 6 (but she lived until 2008, when she was 79!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
