History
An incredibly scarce artifact documenting the height of the international silent film era in London. Released in the United Kingdom in 1929 by C.M. Woolf’s famous W & F Film Service agency, Love’s Crucifixion was the British title given to the dramatic 1928 German silent masterpiece Liebeshölle (also known globally as Pawns of Passion).
Directed by legendary Italian cinema pioneer Carmine Gallone and co-starring Hans Strüwe, the story features Olga Tschechowa (Olga Chekhova), the iconic Russian-born actress who rose to become one of Europe’s most famous and polarizing silver screen icons of the 1920s and 1930s.
This specific oversize program was printed exclusively for elite patrons attending the film’s premium West End run at the landmark Marble Arch Pavilion theatre in London. Because the sound era “talkies” completely took over movie theatres later that same year, nearly all temporary paper programs for late-1920s silent releases were thrown away, making surviving copies like this exceptionally rare pieces of cinematic history.
