 While seaching for something else I stumbled over this pic from a West-German (as it was called back then) movie called Dieses Lied bleibt bei Dir (called Cabaret in USA) 1954, the man is Paul Henried and the woman might be Eva Kerbler.

Flaming Youth 1923, Colleen Moore and maybe Milton Sills. Found it when searching for material for an eventual Colleen Moore thread. The movie in itself is partially lost, one reel has survived and is housed at the Library of Congress. A Jazz Age movie.

In Sophie's Choice (1982) there is a great example this when Meryl Streep is explaining to Peter MacNicol the story behind her "choice." In the scene I am thinking of there is a mirror behind Streep as she tells her story to Stingo in a dimly lit room. Too bad, I can't find a screenshot of this... This is Stingo's reaction shot to what she is telling him...

The Nun's Story (1959) ... Sister Luke (Audrey Hepburn) looks carefully at her reflection in a glass case in Dr. Fortunati's office. The nuns weren't allowed mirrors, as they were considered to be an instrument of vanity.
A Christmas Carol (1951) ... Scrooge (Alistair Sim), being "reborn" as a caring person, looks at himself in the mirror, to confirm that he really exists. (This is an often cited "film flub," because a crew member's face is briefly visible in the mirror.)
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) ... The wicked queen (voiced by Lucille LaVerne): "Mirror, mirror, on the wall ... who's the fairest of us all?"

Lots of mirror scenes in Performance (1970) dir: Donald Cammell and Nicolas Roeg. Naturally enough, as the film is about reflecting other peoples personalities.

I saw The Prisoner of Zenda (1952) dir: Richard Thorpe as a kid with my mum. The only scene I can remember was one where villain James Mason adjusts his impressive winged helmet and preens himself in the mirror before his presumed climactic triumph. The supercilious Mason, as Rupert of Hentzau, stole this movie from the boring goody-goodies (Stewart Granger and Robert Douglas) and got my mum quietly excited. Sadly I could not find a still of that particular scene.  I wonder if that scene inspired one in Dr Who: City of Death (BBC TV, 1979). Julian Glover plays the arrogant and supercilious villain Count Scarloni very similarly to Mason's Rupert of Hentzau. At one point Scarloni is admiring himself in the mirror. He then removes his head to reveal that he is an alien with a mass of squirming spagetti for a head. It was a very shocking twist even for us adult viewers. ![]()

I knew nothing about Linder, and when I first looked at the screen before viewing the clip I thought I was looking at Chaplin. Very interesting stuff.
