EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 1934 motion picture version of Sinclair Lewis' renowned novel, Babbitt. In this particular film still, we see the talented actor Guy Kibbee immersed in his character's world. Set in early 20th century America, Kibbee portrays a middle-class man named Babbitt who is caught between societal expectations and personal desires. The interior setting exudes an air of elegance with its glass decor and hints at the opulence associated with American high society during that era. The scene takes place at a golf club, showcasing one of the favorite pastimes of affluent men back then. Kibbee's portrayal as a golfer adds authenticity to his character's lifestyle. Surrounded by other well-dressed men engaged in conversation or practicing their swings off ice, Kibbee stands out as the central figure. His expression suggests both concentration and contemplation, hinting at the inner conflicts faced by his character throughout the story. It is worth noting that this film still belongs to an era when silent movies were transitioning into talkies. Despite being unable to hear their voices, we can imagine these actors conveying emotions through their gestures and expressions alone. This remarkable photograph serves as a reminder of Guy Kibbee's talent and contribution to cinema history while offering us a glimpse into middle-class America during that time period.
