Wissenswertes

  • Basiert auf: Kismet

Kismet is a 1930 American pre-Code musical costume drama film photographed entirely in an early widescreen process using 65mm film that Warner Bros. Pictures called Vitascope and featuring Technicolor sequences. The film, now considered lost, was based on Edward Knoblock's play Kismet, and was previously filmed as a silent film in 1920 which also starred Otis Skinner.

Production

Warner Bros. spared no expense in making this picture. They spent $600,000 in producing it, and the extravagance of the film was noted by every reviewer. The film played in ten cities across the United States in the wide-screen Vitascope (65mm) version, while the rest of the country (which did not yet have theaters capable of playing widescreen films) were provided with standard 35mm prints.
