Researching old trade mags as I put together my presentation for MADAM SATAN and my eyes bugged out when I saw this in an advert. I'd never seen Garbo's name attached to RED DUST before; that would have been a wildly different picture.

Interesting to see the phrase "the talking screen"; assuming this is 1931 (the year before RED DUST was released), it was nearing the end of the period when "GARBO TALKS!" was still a selling point. Crazy to imagine her in the Jean Harlow role!
