This one-page piece on The Big House (1930) came with a group of clippings. The magazine's name is not on the page, and neither is an author's name. I'm guessing it might be straight from MGM's publicity office, without the pretense of it being written by a reporter for the magazine. Anyway, it is a different take on PR releases.
From the November 18, 1933, issue of Picture Show Magazine, one picture story of When Ladies Meet (1933) and two short articles featuring Mr. Montgomery.
Wonder what happened to "Two Thieves" with Gable. Sounds like a much more interesting project for Bob than Moulin Rouge.
I wrote a post some years back about George Sanders towering over Bob in a scene from Rage in Heaven (1941). George Sanders was a very large guy, particularly for 1941. According to celebheights.com, he was 6' 2-1/2". In the first photo below, he is towering over Bob, along with having a much larger head and body. Big guy.
Bob always claimed to be 6' 1". Now I'm not saying he wasn't in his youth, but it is not unusual to lose height as we age. Lets be generous and agree that he is 6' 0" at this time. So, is George even taller or Bob shorter than 6' according to the photo?
Just found out myself ... TCM is showing Rage in Heaven (1941) tonight at 4:45 a.m. ET. It doesn't get shown that often, but worth a watch. I apologize for the lack of warning. Meanwhile, I'm now running late for a doctor's appointment, but Bob is always a priority!
