Group photo of Heartaches (1935-36)

Heartaches (1935-36) was shot by renowned Hollywood cinematographer Paul Ivano and consulted by legendary James Wong Howe. Sadly, the film's only known copy was taken by the Japanese army during the occupation and had since lost. The picture here showed Esther Eng and some of the actors and crewmembers on location. A mixed race crew was not a common scene at that time.
