“The Oscar” in Photographs

Photographs are the backbone of most movie advertising. They are used in press kits, pressbooks, lobby cards, posters, and newspaper ads. Next to the film itself, they do more to convey the mood and style of the film than any other medium, because, as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Shown below are photographs from “The Oscar” collected by the Webmaster over the years. With a little imagination, you can almost reconstruct the film.
