Hollywood, Open-Mouth Sheet

A giant head swallows a crowd.

What

A 1923 one-sheet from Paramount for Hollywood, a silent comedy directed by James Cruze.

Why

It was a feature follow-up to Paramount's own short A Trip to Paramountown, adapted by Thomas J. Geraghty from a Frank Condon story.

Notice

The word HOLLYWOOD is carved across the forehead, and dancers pour into the open mouth below.

“The town eats its hopefuls”
