An Original 1949 (from the first release of this movie in France) Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked French One-Panel "Grande" Movie Poster (1p; measures 46 1/2" x 63" [118 x 160 cm]) (Learn More) All Through the Night, the 1942 Vincent Sherman World War II (WWII) Nazi spy espionage gambling gangster crime film noir ("The underworld's top trigger-guy blasts away at the toughest mob he's ever faced!"; "It's a shooting battle-royal!"; "From a story by Leonard Q. Ross and Leonard Spigelgass"; about some Damon Runyon-esque Broadway gangsters/gamblers, who accidentally stumble on a Nazi spy ring, and they become patriotic and break it up) starring Humphrey Bogart, Conrad Veidt, Kaaren Verne, Jane Darwell, Frank McHugh, Peter Lorre, Judith Anderson, Jackie Gleason, William Demarest, Phil Silvers, and Sam McDaniel. Note that some of the U.S. posters for this movie used images of Bogart from the 1941 film "High Sierra" (the same is true of some posters for "The Maltese Falcon"!). Note that in all three of these movies (All Through the Night, High Sierra, and The Maltese Falcon), Humphrey Bogart only got the lead part because George Raft turned down the lead in all three! Also, Conrad Veidt was only able to play the lead Nazi in this movie because Warner Bros. "borrowed" him from MGM, just as they did with Casablanca. Finally, note that Peter Lorre later married leading lady Kaaren Verne! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
