Great Actresses of the Past (1938) | MoMA FILM VAULT SUMMER CAMP

In the 1940s, not only could you rent movies from the Film Library, but also borrow related music scores, scripts, and other ephemera. We still rent films through the Circulating Film and Video Library, and many of the original program reels continue to circulate today, including compilations scrutinizing German propaganda films, Jay Leyda’s analysis of Sergei Eisenstein’s unfinished "¡Que viva México!" project, and Depression-era protest footage from the Workers Film and Photo League. However, no program is more popular than "Great Actresses of the Past," a rare glimpse of the early 20th century’s finest stage performers—Eleonora Duse, Sarah Bernhardt, Minnie Maddern Fiske, and Gabrielle Réjane. Nearly every acting coach and theater professor in New York has brought students to the FSC to see this film. Though the acting styles may be outdated, the raw emotional expression of these consummate performers still resonates today. These are four timeless stories of human experience—of love and loss, poverty, and families torn apart. "Great Actresses of the Past." Compiled by The Museum of Modern Art Film Library in 1938.
