The Lady from Shanghai (1947, Dir. Orson Welles)
FILM: The Lady from Shanghai
YEAR: 1947
DIRECTOR: Orson Welles
PINBALL MODEL(S):
Stars (1941, Exhibit Supply Co.)
GAME LOCATION(S): Restaurant
NOTES: Though the appearance of this pin is brief and seemingly inconsequential, I'm not bold enough to apply that designation to anything that the genius Welles decided to include in-frame. The oblique perspective of the pin/wall/phone set at-angle against the hard profile of Welles' face accomplishes a kind of deepening of the frame, despite the rather tight field of the shot.
