Date Sold 9/25/2016Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 10 3/4" x 13" [27 x 33 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Lillian Gish was born in 1893. She was one of the most legendary actresses of early cinema, with lead roles in Birth of a Nation and Intolerance. When sound came in she oddly switched almost entirely to the stage (as Paul Muni would do a few years later), just when most stage actors were moving TO Hollywood. She did have some choice film roles in later years, but none more memorable than as the righteous Miss Cooper in Charles Laughton's Night of the Hunter (who can forget her singing "Bringing in the Sheaves" with crazy preacher Robert Mitchum?), and in 1987, at the age of 92, she appeared alongside Bette Davis in The Whales of August! Some of her other movies include: The Wind, Ben-Hur, and Duel In the Sun (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film). She passed away in 1993 at the age of 99. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 10 3/4" x 13" [27 x 33 cm]. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: fair. The still has discolored unevenly. There is surface paper loss in the top right corner and tiny paper loss in the bottom left corner, and in the lower right border. There is a tape stain in the top left corner (see our image). Note that the still is rippled in the right border, and that causes it to not lay completely flat. This causes "distortion" in our image because it does not lay completely flat in our scanner, but this distortion is solely in our digital image, and NOT in the still itself.
