A 1944 Re-Release Unfolded Special Movie Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More)

Ekstase (released in the U.S. in 1936 as "Ecstasy"), the 1933 Gustav Machaty Austrian/Czechoslovakian romantic melodrama ("Now! It can be shown!"; "The Most Talked of Picture in the World Today!"; "International prize winning motion picture"; "The most whispered about picture in the world..."; "A Bold Story of a Delicate Subject!"; "The Stark Naked Truth of a Woman's Desire for Love!"; "Daring! Revealing! Shocking!"; "Filmed in secrecy!"; "The naked truth of a woman's emotions laid bare!"; "Recommended for adults only!"; "When a woman's love is fulfilled!") starring Hedy Lamarr (billed as "Hedy Kiesler", which was her real name!), Aribert Mog, Zvonimir Rogoz, Leopold Kramer, Emil Jerman, and Pierre Nay. Note that Hedy Lamarr had made four previous movies in her native Austria before she appeared nude in this, her fifth movie, and created a worldwide sensation! She married a rich German manufacturer, who attempted to buy up all the prints of the movie, to no avail. In 1937, she divorced her husband and moved to Hollywood, where she was renamed Hedy Lamarr, and she immediately became a major star. She lived a long and eventful life, and entire books can (and have) been filled with her exploits! In 1940, when she was a major Hollywood star, "Ecstasy" was shown throughout the United States, mostly in midnight shows, and it continued to be shown throughout the 1940s and early 1950s in limited releases around the country. Some posters survive from some of those showings, but next-to-no original 1933 posters from any country are known to exist (because we are likely to never have first release posters, we have included the taglines from the re-releases in our description above, which we normally do not do).

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this notorious movie briefly played in the U.S. in a few large cities in 1936, but was then mostly withdrawn due to its nudity. Starting in the 1940s (likely in 1944), after Hedy Lamarr achieved fame, the movie was given a widespread roadshow release, and likely played in small towns in midnight shows for several years. Also note that this item contains some nudity, so we have placed a white bar over those areas for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual item does not have the white bars.

Condition: very good to fine. The poster has never been folded and it is in excellent condition!
