MOULIN ROUGE
£79.50
Original 10 inch x 8 inch Black and White Portrait of ballerina COLETTE MARCHAND in the 1952 John Huston Drama MOULIN ROUGE.
Text on reverse: ”COLETTE (“Les Legs”) MARCHAND complete with curling tongs and in her “gay nineties” underwear for scenes in “MOULIN ROUGE”
”Marchand performed as a première ballerina on Broadway: Roland Petit’s Les Ballets de Paris (1949 & 1950) and Two on the Aisle (1951). She was cast in the role of “Marie Charlet” for the British movie Moulin Rouge (1952), for which début she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. In 1953, she received a Golden Globe as Most Promising Newcomer – Female for her performance in the film. Her other film appearances were rare: “Ungarische Rhapsodie”, “Par Ordre du Tsar” and the musical short “Romantic Youth” (also as choreographer) (all 1954).”
The portrait is in very good condition with minor surface marks and a small piece of surface paper lifting towards the left edge.
