Well, it's official! HAT CHECK GIRL, the long lost Ginger Rogers movie from 1932 has been shown to the
public again for the first time since it's commercial release over 80
years ago. It was part of this year selections for the TCM's Film Festival, which was held in L.A. week.
Presenting the movie was MoMA's very own Associate Curator, Mrs. Anne Morra. Mrs. Morra is the good soul behind the restoration of HCG that made this showing possible. 18 months ago, when I started my quest to find a copy of this long lost Ginger Rogers movie I found a 35mm master print safely tucked away in Mrs. Morra's museum. When I approached Mrs. Morra, she was kind enough to listen to my arguments and to hear my plea and in a matter of months, she was able to get a restoration project started on the master print. And here we are, only a year later and Hat Check Girl is already hitting the big screen. Another showing of HCG is schedule this fall at the MoMA's film festival ''To Save and Project''
