An Original Vintage Herald (measures 4 3/4" x 7 1/2" [12 x 19 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) a 1932 local theater herald advertising the complete program for December 25th to the 31st, at the Riviera, which included the following movies: 3 on a Match, the 1932 Mervyn LeRoy tragic doomed romance romantic melodrama starring Joan Blondell, Ann Dvorak, Warren William, Bette Davis, Humphrey Bogart, Virginia Davis, Anne Shirley, Hardie Albright, and Lyle Talbot AND The All American, the 1932 Russell Mack football sports melodrama (produced by Carl Laemmle Jr.) starring Richard Arlen, Andy Devine, James Gleason, Gloria Stuart, Preston Foster, Walter Brennan, June Clyde, John Darrow, and the 1931 All America Football Team AND Wild Girl, the 1932 Raoul Walsh historical backwoods hillbilly romantic melodrama (a sound re-make the 1923 silent movie "Salomy Jane"; "Based on Paul Armstrong's dramatization of Bret Harte's famous story 'Salomy Jane's Kiss'") starring Charles Farrell, Joan Bennett, Ralph Bellamy, Eugene Pallette, Irving Pichel, Minna Gombell, and Morgan Wallace AND An American Tragedy, the 1931 Josef von Sternberg romantic love triangle murder courtroom lawyer legal melodrama ("Based upon the novel 'An American Tragedy' by Theodore Dreiser"; about a working class man with a working class girlfriend, but then he acquires a rich girlfriend, and it seems that he will have a wonderful life, but his first girlfriend turns up pregnant, and he is sorely tempted to do anything to get her out of the picture) starring Sylvia Sidney, Phillips Holmes, Frances Dee, Irving Pichel, Frederick Burton, and Charles Middleton. Note that this movie was re-made in 1951 under the title "A Place in the Sun", with Montgomery Clift, Elizabeth Taylor, and Shelley Winters in the lead roles. Note that Phillips Holmes had made an impression in some movies in the late 1920s. In 1931, he would get the lead in the first version of this movie, which made it seem like he would become a major star, but that didn't materialize. He had a major affair with Libby Holman, but that was certainly complicated, and when they broke up, she immediately married his brother! Oddly, years later, Holman would have another very complicated affair with Montgomery Clift, who played the same part in the remake of "An American Tragedy", re-titled "A Place in the Sun". Sadly, Holmes died in a plane crash in 1942. I am very surprised no one has made a movie about his life, or a joint movie about him and Libby Holman! AND Rackety Rax, the 1932 Alfred L. Werker college football sports betting gambling crime comedy (from the story by Joel Sayre) starring Victor McLaglen, Greta Nissen, Nell O'Day, Alan Dinehart, Stanley Fields, and Marjorie Beebe. Some of the other films in this herald include: Screen Souvenirs, Betty Boop Cartoons, Pathe News, China Night, The Smiling Lieutenant, Heroes of the West, Trouble in Paradise, and Most Dangerous Game NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
