An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More) The Tarnished Angels, the 1958 Douglas Sirk aviation airplane-daredevil-and-newspaper-journalist romantic love triangle melodrama ("The book they said could never be filmed!"; "The boldest author of our time!"; "The exciting stars of 'Written in the Wind'"; "Based on 'Pylon' by William Faulkner"; about a washed up World War I flying ace who works in a carnival, and the reporter who comes to do a news story on him, but ends up falling for the pilot's wife, who was once a prostitute) starring Rock Hudson ("as Burke"; "He had heard all the whispers. He knew just what La Verne was - but he also knew that he loved her!"), Robert Stack ("as Roger"; "He won La Verne on a throw of the dice. He gave her his name - and took everything else!"), Dorothy Malone ("as La Verne"; "When she was sixteen she found a dream - and followed it all the way to hell!"; Hudson, Stack, and Malone billed as "The exciting stars of 'Written On The Wind'"), Jack Carson, Robert Middleton, Robert J. Wilke, Chris Olson, and Troy Donahue (in his first credited role, after two uncredited bit parts) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this really cool candid still shows Rock Hudson having a "between the scenes chat" with newcomer Troy Donahue, who was billed as the very bottom of the cast, in his first credited role. Also note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the top of the still. Condition: very good. The top 1" was neatly trimmed off (see above). Otherwise, the still is in nice condition!
