rebeljoe Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 That looks like Loretta Young to me. The hair may be blond but those are Loretta Youngs eyes and mouth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Nope, not Jean Arthur. Although she was in several Silent films. *"Oh, So Good At Being Bad!"* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 *HUH? LILLIAN GISH???? WHEN WAS SHE EVER BAD?????* The amazing thing is that none of these photos are new. I have posted them in the past in other threads. Granted some of those were more than a year ago. Not all of them though. A few were posted much more recently.

fredbaetz Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Mary Astor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 rebeljoe, Fred, No offense. Neither of these are all that easy. No, it is is not Mary Astor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicalnovelty Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 The first lady (the "bad" one) is Mary Nolan, I think. She was so memorable in two films where MGM really gave her tough roles: "West of Zanzibar" (1928) and "Desert Nights" (1929). And then a few at Universal, some B-stuff, and what a tragic life. The second lady is Billie Dove, right? It sure would be nice if TCM could show more of her movies...but it would also be nice if more existed!

gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 musicalnovelty, Yes, you got them both. It was Mary Nolan, and Billie Dove. It's a shame that at least one of the features Billie made with Gilbert Roland doesn't still exist? I don't think that they do? Hope that I am wrong. *Statuesque Blond Bombshell Mary Nolan* *Raven Haired Billy Dove* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgiegirl Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 I guess it's bad to the drawing board for me on the stars. I never heard of these two ladies. Shame on me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 georgiegirl, Here is a 1926 Lobby-card of Douglas Fairbank's THE BLACK PIRATE with Billie Dove. Of course this picture was filmed entirely in Two-Strip Technicolor. And is on DVD from Kino. *The Black Pirate (1926) Lobby-Card. Doug Fairbanks, and Billie Dove* Billie was a Huge Star in the late 20's. In-fact, in a poll conducted by Exhibitors Herald for the past year ending October of 1928, Billie Dove ranked an imposing third most popular female Star in number of votes received. She was behind only Clara Bow who was an overwhelming Number 1, and Colleen Moore, who ranked a comfortable second place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollywoodGolightly Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 gagman, That is a _beautiful_ lobby card, do you mind if we were to add it to the Douglas Fairbanks (Sr.) thread? (The one in Your Favorites). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 HollywoodGolightly, No, I don't mind. I was going to post this weeks ago, but lost the file and did not find it until about an hour ago. I think I have two or three more, but they were not together. I have lots of posters for other Fairbanks films. Hey, please request this movie! THE BLACK PIRATE has never been shown on TCM before. At least not the American TCM, as far as I know it hasn't. They used to run it on the old AMC back in the early to mid 90's. I would also request THE IRON MASK while you are at it too. TCM's contract with Photoplay means they should be able to broadcast the Photoplay Productions Carl davis scored version. Only the 1950's re-issue with Doug Junior narrating has been shown on TCM in the past. And that was at least 9 years ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagman66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 HollywoodGolightly, She Co-Starred with George O'Brien in one Big Silent Epic. I can post the Lobby-Card. If I can locate the thread? My eyes are not good today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
