What did war photography capture about the truth of the Vietnam War? How did Stalin erase his enemies from the public record? What was the story behind ‘The Roaring Lion’, the most iconic portrait of Winston Churchill ever taken, and one of the most famous photographs of all time? What does Richard Avedon’s melancholic photograph of Marilyn Monroe reveal about the actress’s inner turmoil? And, how does filming and photographing Tom and Dominic on Savile Row, in collaboration with Anderson & Sheppard tailors and the Royal Albert Hall, compare with his time photographing Sir Paul McCartney, and other stars?

The Rest is History bonus episode, Dominic Sandbrook is joined by one of Britain’s best known photographers, Chris Floyd, to discuss history’s greatest photographs and their subjects.

Fritz Lang’s METROPOLIS was released in Paris in 1927.
Lang’s staggering gothic opera Metropolis was a pioneering work of science fiction film. Set in the year 2000, Lang’s dystopic future was dominated by monumental skyscrapers and gigantic steel structures, inspired by the frenzy of construction in Manhattan in the 1920s. This vision of urban-industrialisation is captured to great effect on the dramatic artwork for the French billboard poster by Boris Bilinsky (1900-1948). One of the most interesting designers in Europe at this time, Bilinksy flourished in a period when poster artists were afforded a huge amount of artistic freedom.

05/02/2025

The Outlaw directed by Howard Hughes and starring Jane Russell was released in 1943 at the Geary Theatre in San Francisco on a reserved seat, upped scale basis, without the Hays office purity seal but with the Production Code seal of approval.
-
Jane Russell’s cleavage was a major motif in The Outlaw and even more so in the advertising campaign, which brought it into serious conflict with the censors. Howard Hughes attempted to release the film under his own steam, premiering it with an accompanying poster declaring, The picture that couldn’t be stopped! The Hays office had other ideas, however, and withdrew the picture from circulation.
The original poster from 1943 featured a photograph by George Hurrell (1904-1992). During the 1930s and ’40s, Hurrell worked with nearly every major star in Hollywood, with many refusing to sit for anyone else. His ground- breaking techniques, trademark spotlighting and a rejection of soft focus created a sensuality that came to define Hollywood’s Golden Age.
