Idiot's Delight ( 1939)
The best thing you can take from Mr. Gable's performance as a song and dance man in Idiot's Delight, is that he was a trooper. I've always thought it an interesting warmup for Gone With the Wind. Anyway, the movie did produce some great promotional photos. My copy of the above is 10 x 13, a tad larger than my scanner's capability, explaining the cut-off feet and plumes. Have had it for a while, but can't decide where to display it. If it was totally my choice, it would be hanging over the mantel. Ah, the compromises that make up a good marriage.
