Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Picture.

I haven’t seen 1933’s Bombshell, but I have seen this image and it’s pretty wonderful so I had to run with it.

I know the film is a comedy about a famous actress based loosely on Clara Bow, which is interesting because director Victor Fleming was once engaged to Bow. So this would be like Billy Bob Thornton directing a movie about a ditzy, greedy and beautiful actress getting married to Brad Pitt.

The pic featuers Fleming (famous for his one-two punch of The Wizard of Oz and Gone With The Wind in 1939) and his DP Harold Rosson looking on as his actors work. We see them reflected in a mirror. That’s Jean Harlow and Lee Tracy if ya’ didn’t know.

Thanks once again to the great Decaying Hollywood Mansions for providing the image.

If you have a behind the scenes shot you’d like to submit to this column, you can email me at quint@aintitcool.com.

Hi-ho, hi-ho it’s off to tomorrow’s pic we go.
