I can remember watching one restored movie a number of years ago (can't remember the name of the movie at the moment) where they had the audio track, but not the film for several sections, so they just played the audio track with various stills from the movie during those sections. It was kind of an interesting effect as I remember it.

I think that may be "Lost Horizon." The 1937 version with Ronald Coleman and Jane Wyatt. There are still several sections of film missing so they used production stills to fill in the gaps.
