An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 9" Movie Still (Learn More) The Next Corner, the 1924 Sam Wood silent Spain romantic love triangle melodrama ("From the novel and play by Kate Jordan"; about a newlywed who is neglected by her husband and she falls for another man, but she regrets her indiscretion and she writes a letter to her husband confessing all, but the other man stops her from mailing it, and a peasant whose daughter was also seduced by the man bursts in and shoots him, and she returns to her husband who forgives her) starring Conway Tearle, Lon Chaney Sr., Dorothy Mackaill, Ricardo Cortez, Louise Dresser, and Bernard Siegel (as "The Stranger"). Note that Lon Chaney Sr. is second billed but apparently has little screen time in the role as Cortez's aide. Also note that Bernard Siegel was an Austrian actor who started in movies in the U.S. in 1913. He never achieved stardom, but he had a few more significant roles, including in this movie, where Lon Chaney Sr. was the second lead. He also was with Chaney in "Laugh, Clown, Laugh" and "Phantom of the Opera", and one wonders if there was a connection between the two actors. Finally, note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist, NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 9". Please do not bid on it thinking that it is 8" x 10". Condition: fair. Someone took the still and cut it down the middle and then glued it in an overlapping fashion so that 1" of the middle of the still was covered (apparently, they wanted to make it fit into an 8" x 9" frame). All of the still IS there, but one would need to separate the two sections by removing the glue, and then taping them back together in the correct place, and of course, there would still be the separation down the center. There is also paper loss around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
