An Original Vintage Theatrical Other Company Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Intermezzo: A Love Story, the 1939 Gregory Ratoff romantic love triangle music infidelity melodrama ("As magic as your own surrender to love..."; "An interlude of brief enchantment seized from tomorrow's uncertainty. Dramatized with a romantic new star team... Drawn not from yesterday's story books but from the living world of today."; "An intense and absorbing tale, with the wide, powerful sweep of a great human document... teeming with the passionate and the genial and the bittersweet..."; "Millions of people share the heart-gripping problems portrayed by these three"; about a famous violinist having an affair with a young girl) starring Leslie Howard, Ingrid Bergman (billed as "Introducing Ingrid Bergman"), Edna Best, John Halliday, Cecil Kellaway, Enid Bennett, and Ann E. Todd. Note that producer David O. Selznick was certain that Ingrid Bergman would be a huge star when he signed her to a contract in 1938, having seen her Swedish movies. To play it safe, for her first U.S. movie, he chose to re-make one of her earlier Swedish successes, "Intermezzo", which she had made in 1936 with an all-Swedish cast, in Swedish of course. Selznick's instincts were correct (as he had been so often before, and would be again), and Bergman DID become a huge international star! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this was printed by the "other company". This was a company in the Midwest that from roughly 1936 to roughly 1941 printed its own one-sheets and lobby card sets (and a very few inserts and half-sheets) for three major studio movies (Warner Brothers, Paramount and United Artists, but no other studios). The posters and lobby cards are from the original release of the movie, and almost always have completely different artwork from the regular studio release. They never have the name of the releasing studio on the poster or any of the lobby cards. Sometimes, "other company" posters or lobby cards have images that are the equal of those from the regular studio release posters or lobby cards! Condition: good to very good. There is an area of paper loss near the center of the top blank border. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
