EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the golden era of Hollywood, featuring two iconic actresses, Marlene Dietrich and Anna May Wong. Taken in 1932 by a talented German photographer, this still captures a moment from the film "Shanghai Express" directed by Josef von Sternberg. On the right side of the image stands Marlene Dietrich, exuding her signature allure and sophistication. Known for her femme fatale roles, she mesmerizes with her enigmatic gaze and impeccable style. On the left is Anna May Wong, a trailblazing Chinese-American actress who broke barriers in an industry dominated by stereotypes. With grace and elegance, she brings authenticity to her character. The setting transports us to Shanghai's exotic world during that time period. The elaborate costumes showcase both traditional Chinese elements and glamorous Western influences. This fusion perfectly reflects the film's storyline - a thrilling tale set against political turmoil on board a train bound for Shanghai. As we admire this timeless piece of cinematic history, we are reminded of the power of these legendary actresses who paved the way for future generations in entertainment. Their talent shines through even in this single frame captured decades ago. This photograph serves as a testament to their enduring legacy within the movie industry while also celebrating their contribution to cultural representation on screen.
