Bohumil Kröhn • Dancer doing a one handed cartwheel, 1937
I love how the woman’s pose is an iteration of a lily, even her classic 1930's hair roll follows the line of the flower.

The scene in which Quasimodo rings the cathedral bells for Esmeralda was shot the day World War II began in Europe. The director and star were so overwhelmed, the scene took on a new meaning, with Charles Laughton ringing the bells frantically and William Dieterle forgetting to yell "cut." Finally, the actor just stopped ringing when he became too tired to continue. Later, Laughton said, "I couldn't think of Esmeralda in that scene at all. I could only think of the poor people out there, going in to fight that bloody, bloody war! To arouse the world, to stop that terrible butchery! Awake! Awake! That's what I felt when I was ringing the bells!"
CHARLES LAUGHTON (Quasimodo) and MAUREEN O' HARA (Esmerelda) in the HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE-DAME (1939) | dir. William Dieterle

Just as he’s about to sign on the dotted line a voice from inside the house says, “HENRY! Come in and shut that door!”
