EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a glimpse into the magical world of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) studios during the filming of David O. Selznick's iconic adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic novel, "A Tale of Two Cities," in 1935. In the image, we see the brilliant costume designer Dolly Tree (Edna May Oliver, right) collaborating with actress Elizabeth Allan (left) on the set. Allan dons an exquisite period gown, embodying the elegance and grace of the 18th century. The 1930s, a decade marked by glamour and innovation in Hollywood, is beautifully encapsulated in this photograph. The era's distinctive jazz age charm is palpable, with the ornate costumes, intricate set designs, and the undeniable allure of Old Hollywood. David O. Selznick, a visionary producer known for his meticulous attention to detail, brought together a team of exceptional artists to create this cinematic masterpiece. Dolly Tree, a renowned costume designer, played a pivotal role in bringing the characters to life through her stunning creations. The collaboration between Selznick, Allan, and Tree resulted in a visually stunning film that transported audiences to another time and place. This photograph serves as a testament to the artistry, creativity, and magic that unfolded behind the scenes during the golden age of Hollywood. As we admire the timeless beauty of this image, we are reminded of the enduring allure of classic films and the role they continue to play in shaping our cultural landscape.
