EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Walker Evans takes us back to the vibrant world of movie posters in Moundsville, Alabama, during the year 1936. The image showcases a collection of enticing film advertisements that adorned the walls of a local movie theater, offering a glimpse into the entertainment landscape of that era. The selection includes an array of popular films from the time, featuring renowned actors such as Ronald Colman, Claudette Colbert, Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, Herbert Marshall, Gertrude Michael, Lew Ayres, Isabel Jewell, Warren William and June Travis. These iconic names evoke nostalgia for classic Hollywood cinema and transport us to a time when movies were an escape from the hardships faced during the Great Depression. Walker Evans' keen eye captures not only these visually striking posters but also provides insight into American culture at that particular moment in history. As part of his work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI), Evans documented various aspects of life across America during this challenging period. Through this still image frozen in time on nitrate negative film - now preserved by the Library of Congress - we are reminded not only of our nation's cinematic heritage but also its resilience amidst economic recession. This photograph serves as a testament to how art can provide solace and inspiration even in times of adversity.
