EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A fake fire that becomes real" by Achille Beltrame depicts a dramatic incident that occurred on the set of a Hollywood movie. In this particular scene, actors Clark Gable and Mirna Loy were supposed to simulate an airplane fire. However, things took an unexpected turn when the flames became uncontrollable, endangering their lives. The image captures the intensity of the moment as Gable and Loy find themselves engulfed in real flames. With quick thinking and bravery, Gable manages to rescue his colleague from certain danger just in time. The desperation and urgency are palpable in their expressions as they escape from the device where tragedy seemed imminent. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on June 12th, 1938 perfectly encapsulates the chaos and danger faced by these renowned actors during filming. It serves as a reminder of the risks involved in creating realistic scenes for movies. This photograph not only showcases the courage displayed by Gable but also highlights how unpredictable filmmaking can be. It reminds us that even though movies are works of fiction, accidents can happen unexpectedly. As we admire this stunning artwork captured by Beltrame, we are reminded of both the dedication of actors like Clark Gable and Mirna Loy who put their lives at risk for our entertainment, as well as the importance of safety measures on film sets to prevent such incidents from occurring again.
