MAN and WIFE, one of the early Norma Shearer movies, is said to have been released 100 years ago on this day...
The working title for MAN and WIFE appears to have been entitled "When the Cows Come Home", and though little in the way of production stills of the 1923 movie exist, the flammable film is said to have survived as a nitrate copy at the UCLA Film and Television Archive.
Conversely, another Shearer release - THE Tower of Lies - seems to have yielded its share of surviving stills, but the 1925 movie itself is listed as lost thanks to the M-G-M vault fire of 1965. (The studio's stills were fortunately housed in a separate area.)
